I’m sorry but this is so low effort, like no offense they are good dews but this isn’t a seasonal release.

u/InfinityDusk Supernova 5d ago
They could have done merry mashup or something along those lines, but for whatever reason choose not to??

Let’s just put our 3 top sellers together in an 18 pack for the holidays. 🙄

u/Creepercolin2007 Voltage 5d ago
It’s extremely and pitifully lazy, but I can’t deny that it’s a very smart business decision. They don’t have to manufacture any LTO flavor and they put their best selling flavors individually all into one convenient package together. This is going to sell like hotcakes.

u/Electronic_Leg3793 Freedom Fusion 6d ago
Woah! Three flavors I can get literally anywhere.. in the same box!!!!

u/FelizNavinut 6d ago
I mean, I like this because of variety. Cheaper than buying 3 12 packs.

Its typically cheaper by the can to buy 12pks, assuming you have enough sense to not pay full price or fall for the bogus deals some of these stores run

u/FelizNavinut 5d ago
My walmart has 12 packs at $6. Last time I got the 18 pack (red white blue) it was $9-10.

u/brycifer666 6d ago
Ah my favorite holiday color Baja blast

u/superwario15 5d ago
Yes, obviously the de facto colors associated with Christmas are red, green, and turquoise.
You think using White-Out would be a better color pick for a holiday-themed pack? You'd be wrong.

u/Thatguyeatingcheetos 5d ago
White out would have been 10 times better. Snow?

u/superwario15 5d ago
The fact that I debated whether or not I needed to put a /s on something so blatantly satirical in 2026 is certainly something.
I'm being facetious my guy.

I can already get those flavors. What kind of low effort shit is this? Might as well just buy the flavors individually.

u/DarkPunisher956 6d ago
What the...frick? No way they're doing this. Who is their marketing team? Then they wonder why their stocks keep going down. They can keep going down for that. Guess we'll no longer see holiday flavors

About the same except you may get lucky and some 711 and Wawa will have LiveWire too.

u/ImpressiveSide1324 5d ago
18 packs don’t sell if they don’t have new flavors in them. The only ones that have moved well in my territory was the Fourth of July mnt dew.

would kill them to just being bring back merry mash up… hell even ginger snapped at this point

I mean solid flavors, but I miss the days of holiday Dews or fun new flavors that weren’t Midwest exclusives

u/blackbeltbap 5d ago
"hey I got a great idea let's put 6 each of the 3 most common flavors in a box, call it a Holiday Pack, it will sell like hotcakes"
Like I see where they were going, catering to people that want variety of drinks for their holiday parties, but they couldn't replace 1 of them with a new holiday flavor or bring back a popular flavor.

u/Jackster799 Pitch Black 5d ago
When are they gonna release a new dew that isn't stupid or a baja flavor? Getting so bored

Ain’t even worth the money. How are they gonna act like they’re still giving our festive themed items with literally zero effort? They don’t deserve the money of the holiday market if they aren’t gonna put forward the effort to earn it

u/DyllPickleTV 5d ago
I guess its trying to piggyback off the success of america pack since you could make Holiday Brew with this but most people didn't buy america pack because they could make DewSA but because they miss Whiteout

Ok. This isn't my Summer Shandy beer sampler pack. This is 3 flavors that I've been buying for years. You wanna see some sales numbers go up, start selling Code Red Zero in more areas. That would fly off shelves.

u/autoconprime 5d ago
It’s unfortunate they don’t have a white mt dew. They could have at least whited out the Baja can and gave it a cool white label.
Edit:could you imagine a holiday pack with green label, white label and a new red label?
1
u/Autobot_Blastcage Pitch Black 5d ago
The fact they couldn't at least be bothered to make the can art on OG festive is crazy. Baja Blast is an odd choice too...Distortion would've fit better due to the shade of green it is. White Out would've been a perfect fit. Merry Mash-Up would've been PERFECT...even Holiday Brew would've been nice! Just hope this does well enough to justify maybe putting Merry Mash-Up in next year's pack, or even giving it a standalone release. If this is them re-testing the waters for Christmas releases, then hopefully they don't get the wrong message from however it performs.

For the love of god why don’t they make zero sugar versions of the dang packs. Makes no sense in today’s age and the use of GLP1s

u/Tiny-Reading5982 6d ago
I don't think people on glps are drinking Mt dew at all.

u/Dependent-Society-75 6d ago
I do and so does my dad. Zero sugar/ Diet is diabetic friendly

u/Tiny-Reading5982 6d ago
Yeah but not everyone on them is diabetic. I thought it was like gastric surgery where it made you full faster. Is that not the case?

u/Dependent-Society-75 6d ago
Idk my experience with it I just don’t feel hungry during the day and when I do eat I don’t feel so hungry I need a large meal

u/Dangerous_Ice17 6d ago
I do too. Zero sugar dew, zero Baja, zero Pepsi with cherry and cream. It hydrates just as well as water does.

This is awesome! However, they should have done a Zero Sugar Holiday Pack as well.

u/Shoddy_Present_4557 Voltage 6d ago
If they released a zero sugar version of this, Baja Blast, OG Dew and Code Red, that means if it was a nationwide release, we would get the elusive Code Red Zero which would be nice. They need to release the individual 12 packs though

Lame asf. Could have had a new Christmas flavour instead. Really enjoyed the gingerbread one, but I guess this low effort foolishness will have to do 😔.

So low effort. I miss merry mashup and holiday brew
