Started in 2009, this second iteration of DEWmocracy produced three finalists by which America could vote upon. The winner is Mountain Dew White Out, the oddly white-colored, mildly citrus-infused flavor of the bunch.

Mountain Dew Typhoon is the most commercially viable of the DEWmocracy 2 flavors… if it wasn't colored red and easily confused with Dew Code Red. The edgy, fruit punch quality delivers a distinctive pineapple-infused taste that currently is not found in the Dew lineup. We still prefer Mountain Dew White Out among the 3 flavors, but Typhoon has the most sales potential.

Mountain Dew White Out is not awesome. But it's not too bad either. The soapy dishwater-colored flavor is light, citrusy, and mellow… but those characteristics are probably what will lead to its demise. Think of a combination of Squirt, Mello Yello, and perhaps a sugar-infused Fresca with caffeine. However, as a DEWmocracy 2 flavor, White Out is just not unique enough to be considered something that the marketplace will support alongside the other Mtn Dew options. It's safe. It's bland. It's underwhelming.

Mountain Dew Distortion is 1 of 3 flavors that are part of the DEWmocracy 2 campaign. We feel it's the least tasty of the 3, possessing a very fake, syrupy flavor that probably can best be described as melted lime Jell-O that just happens to be carbonated… however, if you are a Green River fan, you may be surprised!

Mountain Dew Throwback has returned once again… with some flavor changes. If you like the current taste of regular Mountain Dew, then you are sure to love this iteration of the limited edition drink. However, if you are pining for the clean, smooth, citrus taste you remember from the first Mountain Dew Throwback back in April 2009, be prepared for disappointment.

Diet Mountain Dew Ultra Violet is a rather tasty entry in the Diet Mtn Dew cannon of flavors, hinting strongly at the retired Revolution flavor. The aftertaste is surprisingly tolerable and a good tradeoff for those looking for a berry-flavored, zero calorie beverage that still has that caffeine kick associated with Dew.
