I finally found some of the new Mountain Dew Game Fuel the other day, at Walmart. As it combines my 2 greatest loves in life, Mountain Dew and World of Warcraft, I obviously needed it.  It comes in 2 flavors, one for each side, Horde Red and Alliance Blue.

I’ll start with Alliance Blue: Alliance Blue is, not too surprisingly, blue. Its official description is “Mountain Dew with a Punch of Wild Fruit Flavor”.  Basically, its a slightly citrusy fruit punch.  Its not bad, but its not that great, either. I thought it tasted a lot like one of the blue flavors from last summer’s Dewmocracy promotion.  I’m sure its not quite the same flavor, but similar.

Horde Red is misnamed, IMO, as its really more of an orangish color. It really should be redder to match the color of the Horde insignia. Its flavor description is “Dew with a Blast of Citrus Cherry Flavor”.  I though it was pretty good, better than Alliance Blue.  Not good enough to be a permanent Mountain Dew flavor by any means, though.  It kind of needed a bit more of a citrus kick to be really good, I think.

You know, this blog has turned into a bit more of a soda review site than I intended.  I’ll have to start posting about, you know, other things…

WoW is currently the game that’s eating up my time (as it has been for quite a while now…)  I have a level 80 warrior, a 70 druid, a 65 mage, a 50 priest and some misc. nobodies I don’t play.  Just in case anyone is interested, I play on the Horde side on the Alexstraza server.

The new Wrath of the Lich King expansion is absolutely amazing.  I’m extremely impressed by how much Blizzard has been able to reinvigorate the game.  Every other MMORPG expansion I’ve ever seen has ultimately just been more of the same, but Wrath is an outright experience.
