Good news for mall goths, skater boys and mom's basement dwellers: Mountain Dew has announced an alcohol range. Coming in three flavors and hitting the 5% mark, Hard Mountain Dew won't hit the shelves until early 2022. Nonetheless, news of its imminent arrival has still made an impression on the internet. Some were horrified at the prospect of it encouraging kids to drink, or degrading the classiness levels of the lucrative hard seltzer market. Others announced their hopes that they would expand the flavor range to include their favorites. Perhaps the most important observation, though, has been that the dangerous caffeine/alcohol is eerily similar to the ong deceased Four Loko. It's only fair that Gen Z gets a special beverage for getting blackout on the college campus too.
