I have never tasted something so disgusting ever! There is no way the soda could be intended to taste that way. I bought a twelve pack cracked one open and the smell of dishwater and musk was overwhelming. The can smelled as if it had been wiped down with a thirty day old dish towell. The taste matched the smell. I tried another can and it was the same. I had my boyfriend try to confirm. We can not believe the taste and smell could be so horrid. Now both our stomachs are cringing and we may be getting sick. The other ten cans are getting thrown away for sure. Something is not right with this brand or this batch of sodas. I will never buy clover valley again.

This is my second time trying the pop, the first time was a plastic two liter version of their Dr Pepper. It had a strong taste of mold. I took a drink and about vomited. I then took a second drink to make certain I wasn't being dillusional, and yes, it taste like mold. Lastnight my son bought the clover valley mountain explosion Cherry citrus pop. I tried a can tonight and same exact thing. It has a very strong flavor of mold. Apparently it does not matter if it's a plastic or aluminum package, something is wrong with their formula or water. Somebody needs to investigate all these complaints before someone ends up sick.

Bought 2 cases yesterday, opened & put 1 in fridge. Got a can 2 drink tonight & it tasted NASTY- had my Scott try it & he said it didn't taste right either :( I poured it down the drain- it is not fit for human consumption :( Tomorrow, I'm going to a store & buying something else. It used to taste decent, but not now. YUCK! GROSS! DISGUSTING!
