Pretty average in most respects, the texture is a touch on the starchy side, and the cocoa flavor is toward the candy end and lightly sour. The packaging is definitely its best feature, though after having tried it, you realize that the cow’s arms are raised more in the spirit of ‘surrender’ than ‘celebration.’
Candyish cocoa flavor paired with a strong sweetness that registers more toward the back of the mouth. Identifiable as chocolate milk though a cursory search should lead to a better option most times.
Unnecessarily thick and tastes like spray paint fumes (modestly so, anyway). You could convince yourself that there’s more ‘banana’ flavor in this than ‘chocolate’— but either way, it’s not to be pursued for enjoyment.
Super starchy feel and a faux-sweetened wheatish taste. You could do a lot worse, but also a lot better with much less effort. Very little chocolate flavor— but if you like that ‘proteiny’ feel, have a go.
Super intense sweetness certainly dominates the experience and will nearly singe the back of your throat. It feels lots more ‘indulgent’ than ‘responsible’ and was a pleasant surprise in that regard, but it’s far too sweet to be taken seriously.
Compositionally identical to Moo Milk Chocolate, same drinking experience as well. Unfortunately, more of a wheaty/malty flavor than that of cocoa, though the remaining complement of flavors is respectable. There’s a chalkiness to the aftertaste that is a bit drying and unpleasant. It won’t beat you over the head with flavor, nor will it embarrass you in public.
Thin and somewhat smooth, but unnatural feeling. The overt (phony) sweetness will shock and displease you. Reckon it's antifreeze without the cool green color.
Watery and unsweet— so you're left with a chalky, wheaty, proteiny taste that is reminiscent of sports drinks of old. The under-sweetness would work a whole lot better were there a creamy component, but it’s completely devoid of that.
Chocolaty, but carries a rather sour, powdery, earthiness. Plenty of sweetness, but not enough salt or cream to balance things out.
Mild, fruity sweetness and chalky medium— it’s not horrendous, but definitely not chocolaty or something you’d drink for enjoyment. Tongue-watering faux-sweetener aftertaste drags it down a bit further though.
Excellently creamy and mildly honey-laden flavor-- unfortunately, that's the extent of the flavor. This has serious potential, but seriously lacks a chocolaty presence. That said, it still drinks magnificently and has a great feel-- it's just on the bland side.
More bland and starchy than the 22g version, but a similar taste. I’d say it’s slightly more preferable as the aftertaste is less overt.
Subtle and malty-- no red flags here. The packaging sets you up for ‘protein drink flavor’ but in truth, you receive a pretty normal chocolate milk; a welcome surprise.
Chalky and seems to be shooting for a 'malty' flavor, but comes up rather short. It's light on flavor, but could be a lot worse considering the drink’s makeup and charter.
There's an ashy quality to the flavor and an anise-like twang on the tongue afterward. If you really need 50g protein, get a double Whopper or something else that won't leave your face grimacing and your wallet 4 quid lighter.
Poured like ketchup out of the box, drank like wheaty pudding. The flavor, I can forgive, the rest of it is an unmitigated disaster.

Pleasantly sweet, and a unique chocolate flavor that you think will be fruity but it goes in a different direction when the salt kicks in— it’s intriguing. It does candify the cocoa slightly, but the balance works surprisingly well. Hard one to review— it’s memorable, but not outstanding, and not terrible—the uniqueness puts it just over 5.0.
Uber-sweet to the point where it nearly singes the back of the throat, but highly flavorful as well— there’s plenty of chocolate to be had. It’s almost as if they didn’t have the confidence in the cocoa flavor (which is plenty good) and cream (more than adequate) that they had to dump in a pile of sugar to boot. Most people will love this stuff, and I don’t hate it, but would enjoy it a lot more with a considerable drop in sugar.
Feels indulgent, but lacks direction. It’s light on cocoa flavor, which seems to be the only missing component, albeit a key one— especially when the label extols ‘Belgian Double Chocolate.’ Double? Double the calories, maybe, but not chocolate. It still tastes pretty darn good.
