Has anyone seen this new Mountain Dew LiveWire? It's like... orange... It says it's only available summer 2003. Anyways, I was just wondering who all has seen this, it's weird.

My good good god...

Famine, the SATTELITES!! THE SATTELITES I TELL YOU!

My coworker tried it and said it's better than Red, roughly equal to Green. I haven't run into it yet myself.

It tastes exactly like orange slice, IMO. Pretty good, for an orange soda. Orange soda will always be orange soda, no matter what you do to it. Orange soda, Root beer, pop...all forms of the same beverage yet possessing incredibly different taste qualities.

[Ash]

However, you have looked over the fact that it is over-caffinated orange soda, thus giving it the edge over other orange sodas.

I didn't like code red... it tasted like hawiian punch with a little mountain dew mixed in.

[Ash]

Ha Ha! I have finally obtained some of this "Live Wire". It is like orange soda only better... It still has a hint of lemon-lime to it, it seems... plus it is less carbonated than most other sodas (like mountain dew). I like it. It's like better orange soda, pretty much.

Good, now there are two soft drinks that I can drink.

yeah, I had some last Friday. It's okay. I think that the green Dew is the best thing on this planet and I think red is complete crap. So it goes in this order: Green, LiveWire, Code Shit.

[Ash]

Agreed. Green is the best on the planet. Red does suck. I like moonshine.

I bought a couple 2 liters of the LiveWire, I think it tastes like Mt. Dew mixed with that Hi-C orange drink mix syrup you can buy in bulk? Anyways, this LiveWire stains your glassware orange if you don't rinse it out after drinking it.

i just bought a bottle and i thought that it was pretty good.

-orange soda
-caffine
-mountain dew
whats there not to like

[Ash]

It's reverse mountain dew. Mountain Dew is lemon-lime with a little bit of orange. This is orange with a little bit of lemon lime.

Pants.

[ShortShit]

Agreed.  Green is the best on the planet.  Red does suck.  I like moonshine.

Smartest thing you've ever said Ash!

Tried it tonight. It's damn good orange soda. But it's still orange soda.

Green™ > Red™ > Orange™ > OTHER_SODA;

[Jangadance]

cxwq, I'm surprised to hear that Green, Red, and Orange are all trademarked words! Also. . . I have to admit, LiveWire is a good change of pace. I would be so bold as to say, right here, right now, I would rather have a tall glass of LiveWire than Mt. Dew orig. Call me a sell-out, but I like a little variety!

[Jangadance]

Better drink fast then! Supposedly after this summer they're not making anymore.

*does a double-Dew LiveWire kegstand*

I think what they might be doing is a "market test". They'll probably see how good it does on the market and at the end of the summer, see if they want to keep it on the market or not.
