Mountain Dew Black Label and White Label
This post is a review of sorts of two sodas I tried: Mountain Dew Black Label and Mountain Dew White Label.
I am not a big soda drinker, but will have one from time to time, probably averaging about 1 - 2 sodas per week. I know they are not the healthiest, but in moderation, I think they can be enjoyed.
I am not the biggest regular Mountain Dew fan, but am a big fan of their Baja Blast Mountain Dew, which can be found in some Taco Bell's and is a sort of cult favorite. I did see one limited run of Baja Blast available in 12 packs of cans at Target, and enjoyed them. So when I saw the Black Label and White Label, I figured I should give them a shot.
The first ting I noted is that these are in 16 ounce cans, and not in the traditional 12 ounce cans. This, along with the nice branding, give the cans an energy drink type of feeling when looking at them. At first glance, they could also look like a beer can. I thought the branding and use of the 16 ounce can would make for an intriguing purchase. I paid $1 each for the sodas.
The first I tried was the White Label. This had a crisp citrus taste and was less carbonated than most sodas. I could still taste the Mountain Dew, and, when the citrus was added, it reminded me of a Sprite, only with less carbonation and some Mountain Dew added. Overall, it was not bad and I give it a 4 out of 5 Steem.
I tried the Black Label next. I enjoyed this one a little better, and it also had less carbonation than most sodas. The Mountain Dew presence was stronger on this one, but it had a great berry flavor, perhaps most resembling a black berry. I thought the taste was fairly sophisticated and it reminded me of a Dr. Pepper, where there are many things going on, but they produce a nice, cohesive and unique taste. This one was a winner, and I give it a 5 out of 5 Steem.
These new sodas were a nice change of pace and I enjoyed them both. Now I need to go for a run or something to offset this sugar high.
Take care,
Brian
Haha! Need to run to offset the sugar high 😂
I am a beverage person, coffee, soda, water, liquor. Just about any beverage. I have not had either one but thanks for the review. I will have to try the black label.
You and I are much alike in the love of beverages... thank you for stopping by!
I have never been much of a Soda drinker, to be honest, and I never liked Mountain Dew original so this would be a taste test I would pass on for sure. I do however love the carbonation. I have a soda stream and drink carbonated water all the time. I think my son would try these though. He is funny, he doesn't like pop all that much but he really likes Mountain Dew. I am a sucker for a good rootbeer sometimes as well.
I have to admit I never tried it , I am more of a diet pepsi drinker , though those cans looks like Monster energy drinks we have over here , don't know if you have them there x
Actually i'm a great fan of Mountain Dew as i often offer my friends with Mountain Dew in a celebrating moments. Anyway your review is highly appreciable and after reading your article i know many things about Mountain Dew. Thanks sir @brain.rrr for the valuable content.
Don't know about the taste but this packing is exquisite
Then it was not bad, I like to drink a lot. The soda is my favorite. I like the soda that is light black. This is the one that hurts the most but it is like an addiction for me. I used to drink a lot more now only when it is given. the opportunity since the price here is high for a can of soda
That was going to say at the beginning I thought it was some energy drink she usually is that way, her design and even colors of soft drinks are usually a little wider and lower, but I see they are sodas @brian.rrr
Friend, how are you? How was the weekend?
You are right when you say that soft drinks or soda as we say in my country are not the best option because they are not so healthy but 1 or 2 a week does not go wrong the problem is when we are addicted to these drinks
Soft drinks and bacon every week ... I imagine if you must run a lot. Hahaha
