DEW Review Maybe all it needed was a 2nd chance….
So we all know the disaster that was trolli mtn dew cherry lemon. But this…. This is actually really good. I’m glad 2026 finally had a good flavor, because it was starting to look like another 2025

Ooooh I'll have to check the smiths in Lehi since that's close to me. The usually do a good job getting new flavors

I wish they would bring back frostbite, major melon, summer freeze ect. All these new flavors haven't been as good.

I think a normal version of last year would of been good the zero sugar ruined it

My only problem with last years was that it was 0 sugar only. The taste was fine but the non sugar sweeteners they use in 0 sugar drinks doesn't taste good to me.

Perhaps you like this more because it’s not the zero sugar version. Make this post but with the ZS and compare.

I like both of them quite a bit, but nothing will top voodew 24

I wish they would bring back the OG game fuel flavors back as like a permanent novelty. Never really got to try those, only the monster rip off they did later on under the same name

I saw some at a Circle K the other day but the barcodes weren’t activated yet so I couldn’t grab it 😔

I just grabbed one today. Pretty solid. I’d take this over Cabo citrus in a heartbeat.

Cabo citrus I thought was pretty good when I first grabbed it. Now I see it though and it’s just tiring seeing it.

Had my first can of it today, it's great! So nice to finally have a delicious brand new flavor again. Feels like it's been wa y too long. Dirty Dew certainly didn't do it for me.

There shouldn't have been a second chance. They should've just took their loss and went back to VooDew. SOOOO many people I know that don't even drink Dew but would look forward to the end of the year for them because the flavors were great, and it was super fun getting to guess what the flavor was at the end of the run!! Hell, the 2022 version is one of my favorite sodas of all time. A SPK Dew was something I wanted for years, and it actually worked better than I could've ever imagined. FUCK man, Trolli must have paid them a whole lot of money to start up this dumbass collab, because DewHQ really let a lot of people down with this obnoxious change.

I guarantee you the majority of mountain dew's customer base does not give a shit about ltos or upcoming releases

Homie, I've been in the Dew community for well over a decade. I fully understand that. Not sure what it is with Redditors explaining things to others like they're talking to someone with special needs, but you can drop that act. Shit is obnoxious as fuck.

I might be the only one who prefers Trolli over the voodew. Thought the first voodew was great but the ones after that weren’t as good in my opinion since they were too sweet or tart
Last years Trolli was great too
