Anyone know where I can get a slab of this? My son loves the stuff, not sure why, but at present is paying through the nose to get it at a not so local shop, all Polish imports, as it is not due to be relaunched in the UK for a few weeks.

Costco didn't have it, but would like to be able to get a slab of cans, or bottles if necessary, as I am sure it will work out cheaper in the long run.

Bog off, I asked first!

I am told that it is being relaunched here, but in a very radio active green bottle/can. That should make it easier to see on the shelves.

The new british mountain dew is going to be an energy drink not the normal fizzy drink.

I used to like it when it was about.

Some good leads. Cheers folks.

Not sure on the "Red Alert", as he doesn't like Cherry Coke, but the others look possible, although no cheaper than going and getting everything the shop has.

Yes. Its like a relentless style caffeine thing now. Being sold in most Bp connect stores in 500ml bottles presently.

Not a fan of caffeine, preferred the original one!

Have saved the link posted for the standard stuff (can you call mountain dew standard??), will try ordering from there biggrin

First time I ever had Mountain Dew... it was being sold at the IAT in Fariford, was the same day as Live Aid, and it was being sold by American Airman off the back ramp of a Hercules, on a blisteringly hot day.
Happy days!
