Boozed-up Dew hits Tennessee stores with a 5% kick of alcohol

[Jilly_in_VA]

A boozy version of Mountain Dew is making its debut in Tennessee, the popular drink's proud home state.

Fans 21 and older can get their hands on HARD MTN DEW starting Tuesday from the Boston Beer Company. It's the same citrusy taste with 5% alcohol by volume.

The drink will be available first in stores in Tennessee, where it was first bottled in the 1940s as a companion to bourbon, plus Florida and Iowa.

3. I predict this will be very popular. Didn't that Fourloko stuff used to have caffeine?

I think they ended up having to remove the caffeine, it was already some bad stuff. Sort of alcoholic koolade (12%) popular with the young crowd, and very cheap.

4. Yeah, that'll be a hit around these here parts...
