Confident upfront saltiness sets the tone for a modeslty grassy onslaught of creamy goodness to which many aspire, but few attain. The medium-to-malty cocoa flavor pops in the latter half of the sip, tapers slowly amidst the buttery afterglow, before finally exiting like a gracious houseguest-- leaving you wanting more. So buy more than you think you need.

Alas-- mocha milk done right! It's well-balanced with both a cocoa and coffee presence, and a sweet/salty ratio appropriately in favor of the latter. The base is still very much milky (as it should be) rather than a watered-down, washed out caricature of what mocha often is. I am a coffee drinker and coffee lover, and I would gladly replace my morning cup of joe with this stuff.

An upfront salty hit pops the warm creaminess that continues shine throughout, escorting the malty cocoa flavor everywhere it needs to go. There's a fully-burdened velveteen texture and a uniqueness to the experience, which has real cachet with someone who has had nearly 1,800 different chocolate milks to this point. Overall, an extremely well conceived and executed drinkable dessert.

Deliciously well balanced and strong flavor that leads with a salty-sweet-malty cocoa punch that fades swiftly but leaves you with a warm, creamy coating and a lustful desire for the next sip. It's thinner than many of its peers, affording it a bit more alacrity on the palate-- making sure all of your tastebuds are engaged, aroused, and beyond satisfied.

Refreshingly undersweet and profiles more like a vanilla milk than anything else. It's very enjoyable, and doubtless the best white chocolate milk I've ever had. I love the smooth, unencumbered viscosity that does its job well with minimal baggage save for a slight astringency on the back end. All in all, a fun way to spend a few minutes and a few hundred cals.

Deliciously creamy-- and that's not only the main focus, but pretty much the only focus. The visuals are fantastic, as is the drinking experience-- it's just lacking a resolute cocoa flavor. What's there is super subtle, and it remains well balanced from a salty/sweet perspective as well, so it's still has a creamy, indulgent feel that you'd expect from a creamline chocolate milk-- just with delicate dusting of chocolate.

The rare, non-homogenous 2% body is by far its strongest attribute, and, well-- perhaps its only distinguishable attribute. While I appreciate the thin, creamier-than-it-should-be milky base, it could shoulder a ton more flavor than it is tasked with. Minnesota is known for relatively bland palates, and aside from a light stationery flavor (think licking a greeting card-- kinda satisfying, I know)-- it's difficult to locate much of a cocoa flavor at all. I want it to be there. I want to like this more than I do. I want to like myself more than I do. I identify with this chocolate milk: only modestly above average on its best day.

[Milk was turning sour at no fault of Ideal Dairy Farms— will re-review at my next opportunity to buy it]

Nicely straightforward cookies & cream flavor without any of the cartoonish qualities that typically plague the genre. It starts off sweet and then rounds out with an accurate cookie flavor that carries you into the aftertaste that is well-supported and extended by its luxuriously creamy base.

Impressively undersweet and thus focused on the cocoa and cream experience, both of which are well executed and substantial feeling. Uniqueness has cachet with me, and the sweet/salty balance-- decidedly in favor of the latter-- further pops the cream flavor in the back-end of the sip, leaving you satisfied, mildly introspective, and ultimately ready for another sip without the inclination to rush.

Neat combination of sharply salty/malty with a heavily creamy girth to it. Usually 'malty' cocoa flavor tends to be on the lighter side, but this carries a much more amped-up taste and finishes with a resolutely salty pinch and dusting of grit on the tongue. Damn fine stuff.

Leads with cocoa-- a strong, sourish / mature cocoa flavor seizes your tastebuds right away and takes you on a uniquely tasty journey that ends with a clean aftertaste, ultimately whetting your palate for another draw. Both under-sweet and under-salty, it's well balanced and affords the chocolate flavor the lion's share of the limelight. The only chocolate milk I've seen to date that has 'butter' as an ingredient-- I can't pick it out per-se, but bonus point for the novelty!

More coffee than chocolate-- but that's certainly no complaint. As one who likes sweet coffee, this is enjoyable stuff with an honest caffeine kick before you can polish off the pint. There's a slight astringency in the afterglow that is noticeable but doesn't hamper the overall plus experience.

Well-imagined cookies & cream flavor with no shortage of sweetness to get its point across. The creamy non-homogenized base furthers the 'cream' part of C&C-- lending to an authenticity that many of its peers lack.

Tasty initial maltiness that is carried through to the end by its gorgeous creamline body-- this is uniquely delicious and indulgent despite an under-reliance on chocolatiness.

Pleasant sweetness up front, followed by an average-to-mild cocoa flavor and minimal back-end baggage. It finishes clean, but I'm left unsatisfied by the incongruence between the prominent Hershey's co-branding and the lackluster chocolate presence in the look and more importantly, the flavor.
