So what is everyone's favorite mtn dew flavor? I thought voltage was good, and I liked that they brought back pitch black. I don't think I had any of the original pitch black, but I read the new one has a different flavor, more berry than grape.

Thoughts?

Baja Blast. I haven't had any of the other flavors in quite a long time, come to think of it.

I used to like Code Red.

And of course, original.

My favorite is the piss flavored one, except that's pretty much all of them, right?


Kidding. I don't think I've tried Mountain Dew since the 70's.

I hate mountain dew, but have an unholy love of gamefuel (which I am sure is just code red and livewire mixed). Fortunately you can't really get it often these days.

diet code red, any of the non-diet ones taste like drinking syrup.

Voltage, and then White Out. Code Red and Baja Blast tied for third.

I usually go for diet, though, because the sugar in regular is nuts.

I used to love the hell out of original and Code Red.

I can't really drink any of them anymore. I've vowed to stay away from sugary drinks after I realized I was drinking too many cans (or fountain refills) a day (of any pop). Once I started working as a busboy in highschool, I was getting fountain refills nonstop and decided this what it, I gotta quit.

My only pop now is diet caffeine free for mixed drinks... occasionally a regular Coke but that's basically once in a blue moon.

As a kid, I remember the original Surge - that stuff was pure crack. Then they brought it back but it wasn't the same. Then they relaunched what was basically the original Surge as an energy drink, lol. That was Vault. And it was delicious.

But damn, I remember downing entire 2 liter bottles of different Mountain Dew flavors at LAN parties in high school. Flavors for those days: OG Dew, Code Red, Pitch Black, and Livewire.

You must have the urine of a God

And let me tell you something, my urine is the best urine. I'm not trying to brag here, but it's better urine than anyone else's, let me tell you. And you know what they say about men with great urine?

Original, though Livewire isn't bad when you can find it. Only really found on college campuses and occasionally certain convenience stores will specifically stock it.

Not much of a fan of the standard soft drinks. But I do really like the Orange flavored "Kickstart" drinks.

I've had small stints of preferring almost every flavor, even though I don't drink it all that much anymore. I haven't tried voltage or pitch black. When code red came out I drank way too much of it, then I also loved livewire when it came out. White out was good for a while.

These days if I bother with mountain dew at all it'll be game fuel or Baja blast since they usually have that in gas stations now.

livewire orange or whatever it is.

Best tasting orange soda ever.

on another note, this is the best soda type beverage ever.

Absolutely! That death adder drink is amazing. I always grab them when I see them.

7 or 8 years ago they had a blue raspberry flavor that I liked quite a bit. Had it a few times. But I more or less stopped buying it when I quit buying and stocking pop in my house. Now, the only pop I am liable to drink is the root beer at Culvers when I stop there for lunch.

Throwback Mtn. Dew > LiveWire Dew > CodeRed Dew
AFAIC

Fruit punch? Not really my thing.
However, Venom Mango (Killer Taipan) is possibly the best on the market. Pure mango flavor. Have to make sure it hasn't been sitting on the shelf too long though, or it'll taste off.
I drink either Killer Taipan (mango) or Black Mamba (cherry) daily. They use corn syrup and glucose as sweetener.
