As with nearly all mocha or chocolate/coffee milks, the coffee flavor way outpaces the chocolate flavor, where it feels like just coffee milk. Not a complaint, by the way, just an observation. This has a bit of a sweeter disposition than some others I've recently had, and I certainly find it enjoyable, but would be even more so (for me anyway) if it were reigned in a touch. But the creamline base is velvety and does more than its share of the flavor distribution and maintenance from initlal sip to lasting, satisfying repose.
Surprisingly amped-up flavor that leads with a searing sweetness but delivers enough chocolate and salt to feel more like a haymaker than a sucker-punch. After repeated sips, you develop a cumulative throat-sting from the syrupy sweetness, and the cocoa flavor disappears rather abruptly in the aftertaste. It starts off strong, but finishes rather feebly.
Well-balanced across the board, leveraging as much of its reduced-fat base as possible to provide a tasty treat. Decidedly better than most of its 2% peers by virtue of it being more chocolaty than average and keeping its sweet-salty balance in check.
Smooth and evenly creamy texture ultimately leaves you wanting more-- not so much more in terms of additional servings, but more in terms of more cocoa presence and dimension to the flavor. It's perfectly competent, and does not suffer the same pitfalls of other high fructose corn syrup containing chocolate milks. It's relatively inexpensive, and paints within its expectations.
I'm genuinely embarrassed by my low expectations-- this is an outstanding port of the traditional Oberweis 2% chocolate milk. Particularly impressive is the no-sugar-added (allulose/stevia) finesse, executed so deftly that you have to try hard to notice the difference. For all the times I've been beat mercilessly over the head by the Stevia or Monk Fruit sledgehammer-- I had assumed that using these ingredients were a lost cause; an automatic palate destroyer. Not anymore. Oberweis figured out just the right levels to deliver a relatively low calorie, low sugar, high caliber chocolate milk experience worthy of your time, especially for those seeking these 'better for you' or lactose free features. It can be done. They cracked the code. I like this stuff.
Deeply chocolaty with well-balanced sweet and salty levels-- tasty right out of the box upon first sip. There's a significant chalky component which lingers on the tongue post-swallow, but for reconstituted UHT chocolate milk, this more than does the job.
Solid cocoa focus with a pinch of salt at the end which accentuates the cream and nicely rounds off each sip. There's a spot of powderiness / chalk a couple seconds after the swallow but when not paired with a lingering funk, it's rather forgettable.
Points for accuracy here, it tastes a lot like a peanut butter cup and is nicely restrained in a way that works to its benefit. The reduced fat base is neither pushed to its limits nor exposed-- it rests confidently in the background as the chocolate and peanut butter flavors tell their story.
I've had Freddy Hill Farms ice cream, so I know they know how to impart flavor. They just didn't do it very effectively here, unfortunately. It's got a nice creamy body that could be saddled with a LOT more flavor. Largely bland and unoffensive, it doesn't move the needle much for a whole chocolate milk.
Creamy, smooth, moderately chocolaty experience with a noticeable 'cooked milk' flavor that some might mistake for a 'caramelish' dimension. It does not live up to the past Marva Maid Extra Rich at all. There's no apparent richness beyond what your typical whole chocolate milk offers. It's good, not great.
Satisfying experience with a cocoa-focus, and a saltiness that does its best to leverage the 2% base. This seems to be the standard template of reduced fat organic chocolate milk that shares many brands/labels and is becoming ubiquitous. I'm not complaining.
Thick, yet smooth, with more of a light malty flavor instead of cocoa. I drank quite a bit of it in search of an additional flavor dimension, but it remained straightforward and enjoyable in its simplicity.
Creamy, salty, malty, and smooth— not a bad profile for a reduced fat chocolate milk, and while the cocoa piece is largely missing, it’s not too sorely ‘missed’ in this case.
Thin, smooth, and deliciously ice-creamy— quite an achievement with a mere 1% fat! It goes down quickly, but imparts a mildly salty, pleasantly chocolaty, fully unique flavor throughout. Patently excellent low fat chocolate milk.
A pleasant salty-malty journey through familiar “Two-percent Reduced Fat Organic Chocolate Milk” territory. It does what it sets out to do and delivers a flavorful enough drinking experience to warrant your consideration.
Smooth, relatively-luxurious experience with a nod to malt and a moderate caramel-like sweetness. It drinks quickly and goes down without a fight.
Silky smooth and drinks quickly, thanks to a thin yet creamy texture and a pleasant, medium flavor that won’t stop you in your tracks for better or worse.
Reminds me of high quality primer— it feels like a great base that could support much more flavor. It does well to rein in the sweetness, but without prominent cocoa, cream, or salt presence, it ultimately feels underdeveloped, though is still easily drinkable.
Easily could pass for 2%— the cream is not only accessible, but accentuated— in part due to its velvety feel and balanced cocoa flavor.
