Didn't realize I was drinking Mountain Dew when I opened this thread. Cheers.
Wow, the design of their "new" cane sugar bottle really pays homage to the old product design pretty well.

Mountain Dew was originally made to be a mixer for whiskey hence it's name (Mountain Dew is a nickname for whiskey).

Interesting... I've heard people say Mountain Dew and whiskey taste good together, but I can only mix it with vodka

Was Mtn. Dew always that glowing radioactive green color or is that a more recent thing?

Pepsi did that too until they replaced the Throwback with a slightly different version.

Isn't the can for Pepsi Throwback based on the old 80s design?

oh god the ad makes much more sense in that context
in the first half he's getting her drunk so he can take advantage of her. in the second half he shoots better when he's drunk
DEAR GOD
"it'll tickle your innards" is not exactly an appealing metric for pitching soda
ever since finding out moutain dew was made to be a mixer with liqour like whiskey, ive actually been mixing it with exactly that, whiskey. I'm more surprised that i should be at how well it actually goes together. I thought it'd be awful but its shockingly pretty good.

It's absolutely worth it - during a trip to the US almost half a decade ago, my dad (who loves collecting interesting booze bottles) picked up this pretty awesome empty bottle of moonshine that actually was referred to as the original "Mountain Dew" - a sort of bootlegger brand of illegal moonshine.
He'll love this video because he was right about it all along and I had no idea of it's roots to moonshine. :v:
Woah i didnt realize mountain dew is that old.
Also Cousin Luke noscoped all those turkeys at once. They already knew who their target audience was gonna be in the future.
