MD 20/20 Blue Raspberry
Today’s Mistake: MD 20/20 Blue Raspberry. There is nothing “bling bling” about hobo wine.

Ah, the infamous Mad Dog. It’s been a hot minute since we featured a hobo wine, and ever since the Night Train debacle, I’ve been a bit scared to do another one. Now that Mad Dog’s been done, we only need Thunderbird to round out the big 3 of budget wine. In case you’re not familiar, these are cheaply made grape wines with artificial flavors added to keep people from noticing how shitty it is. Of course, all these wacky artificial flavors do is accentuate the wine’s lesser qualities. While researching, I was saddened to learn that “MD” doesn’t actually stand for Mad Dog, but rather Mogen David. Darn.
From a wine glass.
Color
Electric blue. Looks like Hipnotiq or Four Loko or some combination of the two. Looks pretty cool in a wine glass, but otherwise not good news.
Nose
Holy crap. An assault of cheap grape and artificial blue raspberry. Some alcohol fumes as well.
Taste
Just like Four Loko, but more diluted.
Final Verdict
God, this is horrible. Not Night Train horrible, but damn close. 1 out of a possible 5. ILL DEMONIC CLIQUE CHIEF.
