Ah, the question of the hour. What does Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast taste like? Well, Nerdist was lucky enough to try a can of Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast, and we’re happy to report back on its taste. For now, we’ve only tried the original. But let us tell you, Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast is a lot of fun. This can of hard soda was a sweet and tangy experience with just the right amount of carbonation. (And very little taste of alcohol at all.) For some, the flavor might veer on the too-sweet side, but for those with a sweet tooth, it’s just right. And the sweetness could keep you from accidentally drinking too many cans of this alcoholic version of Baja Blast.

Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast, of course, tastes very similar to Baja Blast itself. It may seem obvious, but these days, with so many adaptations and iterations of favorites, it’s worth noting. In this case, there are no big surprises. So, if you’re a Baja Blast fan, then you’ll love the taste of Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast. The hard version of the soda is a little more thick or syrupy feeling than the plain soda version. But, not in bad way. And that mouth feel enhances the fun of trying a drink that’s a little wacky.

Notably, the color of Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast perfectly captures the exact shade of regular Baja Blast. The color is half the flavor experience we feel, so we were glad to see it done right. And who doesn’t want to drink an eerie blue-green concoction?

Other Hard Soda Fun

In celebration of the Hard MTN Dew Baja Blast Mix Pack’s new year-round availability, Hard MTN Dew is trying to blast off into space. It hopes to be the first beverage abducted by aliens.

You can check out some of the shenanigans above, so crack open a hard Baja Blast and enjoy.
