Top Ten Chocolate Milks from Connecticut

Chocolate Milk Reviews |
Well it's finally here-- the final piece of the Connecticut chocolate milk trilogy-- the Top Ten chocolate milks from the Constitution State (and, oddly enough, the Nutmeg State..). Years in the making, we've finally cobbled together all the footage, leaving so much on the cutting room floor in an (unsuccessful) attempt to make it under 20 minutes. But anything less would be a disservice to one of the best local dairy states in the union-- from idyllic farms to bathroom humor to life-altering potable dairy to, what else, manure-- it's all covered here. Come see a side of Connecticut you probably didn't know existed.
Afoolzerrand is on a mission to find the best chocolate milk the world has to offer. And perhaps the worst. And of course everything in between.

Great video Brother 👍
You may be surprised to hear this but I was a regular customer at Sweet Grass Creamery when they were first testing Chocolate Milk. I was their first customer to sample it pre-market. Carol asked me to try it and give her my opinion. A big thumbs up is what I gave her. So cool that you chose them #1.
Thanks for the long list of new farms to try. Living next door to CT puts them all in driving range.
Keep up the good work.

Dude- that's awesome! Can't say enough about Sweet Grass Creamery and the folks behind it-- would've loved to spend more time there, and already looking forward to going back! Fantastic that all these are within your driving radius as well. We're planning a big multi-week northern New England trip next year (ME/VT/NH), and maybe we'll be able to stop by on the way! Thanks again for the kind words and additional context involving Sweet Grass!👍

Yes!! I’ve been anxiously awaiting this episode. So well done! Five rated a ten??? Oh my!

[@afoolzerrandcom]

Thanks! Yeah with that many elite chocolate milks, it puts CT in the conversation with PA, NY, and OH for some of the most prolific choc milk states. Pretty sure I sprained my pancreas on this trip 😋

[@Danrike]

Great job! I almost want to see your judging proccess, like you at the table just arguing with yourself haha. I know it´s long and probably boring but I don´t know it could be interesting. Keep it up!

[@afoolzerrandcom]

Thanks for checking it out! Yeah the internal conversation is a bit hard to capture 😅 but the written reviews are pretty reflective of my thoughts as I go through the tastings. I always try to have at least 3 (and ideally no more than 8) chocolate milks at a time so I can do side-by-side comparisons. Here's a link to where the reviews are if you're interested. Thanks again for the kind words and comment! www.afoolzerrand.com/home

That was a good idea hosting the show from the back of your car with the milks in the cooler while show clips of your stops.

[@afoolzerrandcom]

Thanks buddy- that format seemed to make sense, but it was a lot of cooler management to make sure I had all of them at the end of the trip. Plus, some random guy in the back of his car in a parking lot has instant credibility, in my book 😆

When will you be posting your review of Nash Creamery from Nickelsville Va ? Looking forward to your thoughts, I think their chocolate is one of the best I have tasted

[@afoolzerrandcom]

Good question-- I'm not exactly sure when that will get out (early 2023?)-- I've got months of backlog videos to work through (I can record them a lot faster than I can produce them, unfortunately!😅). Nash is great stuff, for sure! In the meantime, I might try to get back up there to visit the farm (if possible) for more footage. Thanks for the comment & happy drinking!

[@pricecochran5438]

Let’s go!

[@afoolzerrandcom]

You got it man! 🤜🤛

[@ChristianRoyUtah]

Good stuff!

[@afoolzerrandcom]

Thanks for checking it out!

[@Pnw_Railfan_Avation]

Man I really wish I can find these other then just Dairygold in our local store in Wa state lol

[@afoolzerrandcom]

There's lots of great stuff in WA (not sure how much of it is available where you live necessarily) -- but check this out if you're interested-- top 10 from WA : th-cam.com/video/5lLO-t04Kfw/w-d-xo.html.
And over the last couple years, I've added a couple more to the chocolate milk map (on my website) that I haven't yet tried from WA. Let me know if you need any help finding any of them in your area. Cheers man- and happy drinking! 😋
