The can reads: "A blast of grape flavor with a sour bite"
My wife brought me home a 12-pack of this for the holiday weekend as it's a limited time only drink.
The original Pitch Black reminded me of Grape Nehi from my youth, but this tastes like somebody put a bunch of grape Sweet Tarts in Mountain Dew and shook it up.
My wife took one taste and couldn't finish the rest. I think it's okay, but I wouldn't buy any for myself. I think she hit it on the head when she said that if she's thirsty, she wants something to quench her thirst, not something that makes her mouth curl up.
Your mileage may vary.

It must be a wifely thing since my wife thought it was absolutely vile. Personally, I really thought it was Mountain Dew's attempt to get in on the lucrative "mixes well with vodka and/or grain alcohol" market since I just can't see it being successful as a stand-alone drink.

It's okay, I like PB1 better like AngryJohnny said it just has a amplified after taste. Of course it's Mountain Dew and I'll try anything they put out.
The Today Show? Wow, talk about Instant Celebrity! Do you think this guy had any idea on Friday when he posted the auction that he'd wind up on national TV by Wednesday?
