This is the Allen’s Inspired by Monopoly, a collaboration between the two brands inspired by Monopoly tokens. Strawberry Hotel, Pink Raspberry Dog, Green Apple car, Orange Top Hat and Pineapple Duck.

Clockwise from top:

• Red Strawberry Hotel: The flavour was unremarkable and artificial compared to the vibrancy and freshness of Japanese gummies. It was sweet but lacked the acidity of fresh fruit.
• Pink Raspberry Dog: The flavour was mellow and sweet throughout, without the fresh tartness of the fruit. It bordered on bitter and medicinal in the finish.
• Green Apple Car: The flavour was very mellow, tasting more like artificial cooked apples than fresh apple juice. It was sweet and sharp but lacked the fresh hint of acidity found in apple juice.
• Yellow Pineapple Duck: The flavour was a touch sharp, bordering on bitterness at the end. It tasted artificial and was not juicy.
• Orange Top Hat: The flavour was dominated by fruit oils, with bold sweetness but lacking the juiciness of fresh fruit. It was too sweet, and the oils left a numbing sensation on the tongue.

The flavours were identical to other products in the Allen’s lineup, with the only difference being their ‘fun’ shape. The borderline medicinal quality of these flavours likely came from the use of flavourings rather than fruit juice. The texture was thick and gum-like, allowing the teeth to sink through easily but lacking bounce or resistance. Overall, the collaboration was uninspired and unhygienic, and not worth purchasing.

This Allen’s Inspired by Monopoly contained 160 g. It was produced in Australia and received as part of a promotion in Sydney, Australia in 2024.
