Multivitamin scent and flavor (to a lesser extent), and feels like a mouthful of beach sand. You can chomp on the individual grains during and after each sip, and there’s an audible ‘crunch’ as you do so. It’s chalky, passably chocolaty, and from a taste perspective, you could do a lot worse in the ‘breakfast shake’ category.
Sweet and chocolaty, with plenty of excusable chalk. The flavor is not to be overlooked here, it is rather strong and true— I must say that I’m both surprised and impressed. Your mouth will dry out from the heavy chalk, but you’ll effortlessly rationalize another sip, and another…
If you’re paying close attention, you may notice actual tiny bits of banana that buoy to the surface, and you can feel them on your tongue— actually a welcome feature and pleasant surprise. The banana flavor is stronger than the cocoa flavor, but it’s a pleasantly unique drink that can be a nice change of pace.
Has an almost pinkish-brown coloration, and is super-sweet above all else. I can’t locate much of any cocoa flavor— just a thin, sugary drink that emulates milk fairly well, but won’t satisfy your chocolate craving one iota.
Why do I even bother with these? There's no sweetness, no chocolate, no reason to drink this at all. It’s super thick, and akin to drinking oatmeal without the solid bits.
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.
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.
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.
A sharp sourness to the initial bouquet will almost certainly (negatively) bleed into your taste experience. There’s a definite ‘caramel’ flavor pursuit here, which is odd given the ‘fudge brownie’ moniker. The taste isn’t as offensive as the smell, and the texture is noticeably thinner than other Frijj products— overall, it’s more caramel than brownie, and the initial flavor mystery wears off for the better as you sip away.
Much more pleasant experience than the first time I tried this. The ‘new recipe’ claim is definitely vindicated here— it’s a much creamier, more truly chocolaty experience, and despite being very thick (pet peeve of mine), it was still enjoyable.
Super thick and dense feeling— but flavorwise, my low expectations turned out to be hasty. It’s definitely undersweet (as the label clearly would suggest) but there’s still enough chocolate flavor and creaminess to provide a hint of indulgence. Fans of thick shakes would do well to seek this out if counting calories.
Same sort of tongue-watering reaction that I got from the Classic and Halfvol Albert Heijn versions. Aside from that undesirable quality, this drink is flat and under-salted at the very least.
Well played here— a lighter version that puts more stock in cream than in sugar. Texture is on the gummy side that is more noticeable in small sips-- but the artificial sweeteners are well hidden and don’t detract from the flavor.
Decent initial hit of cocoa flavor, but that soon atrophies to an unsavory (no pun intended) aftertaste that made my tongue water. There’s definitely something off.
Tasty medium-strength cocoa flavor that goes down nicely and is worth the chalkiness that might put off some people in search of a smoother experience.
Thick and chalky, with a fleeting cocoa flavor and relatively empty finish. It feels like it should be packed with flavor, but it washes out and doesn't deliver. There's also an unpleasant aftertaste that lingers for some time after swallowing— which is the only real reason to take another sip. But you have to break the cycle at some point. Now is a good time.
Milky, a little chocolaty, but lacks a flavor kick that would put it in a higher echelon. It’s well balanced, enjoyable, and nothing trips my ‘fugazi’ sensor.
Creamy, almost 'airy' feel-- which is unique, as most protein-enriched chocolate milks feel dense or gummy. Lightly sweet with identifiable cocoa, this is a welcome surprise as it doesn't carry too much unnecessary baggage from a flavor standpoint. Definitely feels more indulgent than the label lets on.
Chalky, but still more milky than most other protein drinks out there. There’s a sharpness to the cocoa that feels just a tad off, but all things considered, it's a fairly decent tasting protein-enriched chocolate milk.
