Anyone tried it? Thoughts?

It tastes kind of like those triangular minute maid grabe sherbet things we got in the elementry school cafeteria

4/17/2006 11:45:23 PM

Needs more flavor/taste

4/17/2006 11:46:00 PM

thumbs up

4/17/2006 11:46:32 PM

I've turned my back on Dr. Pepper in all its other forms

this is the one!

It's good by me

4/18/2006 2:03:29 AM

not a big fan of it. too much cream, not enough berry. and it tastes nothing like dr. pepper

4/18/2006 5:35:13 AM

I've been reluctant to try it

4/18/2006 6:13:30 AM

I had the diet version but agreed with the above...

Too much creme but not enough berry.

And it wasn't enough creme to make it creme soda sooooo...
I'm not excited.

4/18/2006 9:37:07 AM

i tried it. I thought it tasted like carbonated dimetapp...horrible stuff.

4/18/2006 10:10:55 AM

It's good, but still doesn't beat the original Dr. Pepper.


It kinda tastes like a drink I had when I was a kid...it was called Blue Cow...I'm not sure if this is it, or not though:

4/18/2006 10:12:48 AM

i still like the Cherry-Vanilla one and of course, the original. Fountain Dr. Pepper is the best soda on the planet!

4/18/2006 1:35:21 PM

i think the original dr. pepper tastes like cough medicine, but this was so different it was tough to notice the two were related

a solid effort, not outstanding, but not 'eh' either

4/18/2006 1:48:54 PM

where can I buy it?

4/18/2006 2:54:16 PM

I saw it at the Wolfmart on Hillsborough. I was looking for cherry vanilla DP.

4/18/2006 3:20:17 PM

The C-stores have it, too...at least the Quad one does

4/18/2006 3:22:50 PM

had it this weekend, didn't really like it. not very flavorful

4/18/2006 4:53:03 PM

why won't they just leave Dr. Pepper alone????

i mean seriously, it's a classic. stop messing with it.

4/18/2006 5:21:06 PM

poor sales perhaps?

4/18/2006 5:27:55 PM

It's good...it tastes like berries and cream... I wouldn't want to drink it with a meal or anything though.. It's kind of like a dessert soda you have all by itself.

4/19/2006 1:15:46 AM

Doesn't taste different enough from regular ol' Dr. Pepper for me to want to buy this version again.

4/19/2006 1:30:04 AM

They aren't changing Dr. Pepper. Don't worry you can still buy your shit

Uh oh!

4/19/2006 1:50:24 AM

^Let me put it this way: If I were blindfolded and given a can of this, I feel confident that I'd guess it was regular Dr. Pepper.

I'm not saying it tastes EXACTLY like regular Dr. Pepper, but it's not as new and different as I'd like it to be. And certainly not enough that I'd buy it again.

4/19/2006 1:56:53 AM

^you're kidding, right? i think dr. pepper tastes pretty good. this berries and cream stuff definitely doesn't taste like it.

4/19/2006 1:54:44 PM

yeah, I don't think they taste similar at all

[Edited on April 19, 2006 at 2:20 PM. Reason : it's probably the berries and cream part that makes me think this]

4/19/2006 2:20:31 PM

Diet Dr Pepper Berries & Cream
New Diet Dr Pepper Berries & Cream combines the one of a kind flavor of Dr Pepper with the smooth indulgent taste of cream and a refreshing hint of berry. So, toss the calories, bring on the flavor, and take those taste buds for the ride of their life.

sounds almost as gross as



[Edited on April 19, 2006 at 3:32 PM. Reason : oops]

4/19/2006 3:29:53 PM

I'M NOT A FAN OF DR. PEPPER NORMALLY BUT THAT IS GOOD SHIT...ITS LIKE A CROSS B/T DR. PEPPER AND CREAM SODA!!!

I WISH I HAD FOUR HANDS SO I COULD GIVE IT FOUR THUMBS UP!!

4/19/2006 3:31:20 PM

it seems like the new flavors only last like a couple of months and then they get rid of them

4/19/2006 3:48:34 PM

well, cherry/vanilla is still out there in full force

4/19/2006 4:37:18 PM

^THAT SHIT SUCKS BALLS

4/19/2006 5:09:16 PM

Tried the diet today, not a fan.

Sticking with the cherry/vanilla.

4/19/2006 5:14:31 PM

Not about Dr. Pepper, but I still drive to Four Oaks just to get a Coke with vanilla made the old fashion way at the drugstore. Or Coke with orange, which I know sounds gross, but it kicks ass.

4/19/2006 5:38:35 PM

u gotta drink Dr. Pepper slightly warm

4/19/2006 5:43:23 PM

eww

Nope.

I know it's a shock that my taste and your taste aren't the same, but it's going to be OK. I promise.

I love regular Dr. Pepper. This tastes different. But not different enough to make me want to buy this again.

I really thought I was being clear about this.

4/19/2006 10:30:47 PM

Do they have it in regular (non-diet) yet? All of the stores in Athens have it in diet variety.


You know what I miss? Dr Pepper gum. I remember that from when I was a little kid - those were little liquid-filled cubes of chewy heaven

i'm guessing the berry taste is not gonna be that unique to qualify it for a good drink and that the cream aspect will make it too sweet
