Over the summer, a new ice cream shop opened in town: The Moo Thru at Pro Re Nata brewery, within walking distance from the school. The burning question is, is it any good? In this article we will answer once and for all by trying every flavor and reviewing them. Yep, folks, this is the kind of hard hitting investigative journalism you come to the Western Hemisphere for. So come in and have a seat. I will be your ice cream sommelier for this evening.
Blackberry: It’s as creamy and sweet as we’ve come to expect from the Moo Thru, but it does not taste like blackberry and is the only fruit flavor without seeds, which makes me wonder if it’s flavored artificially. Best paired with a suspension of disbelief.
Cake batter: The texture of this ice cream is like something out of a dream. It’s smooth, it’s flavorful, and it’s an all-around good time. Best paired with a healthy dose of nostalgia.
Cookies & cream: They really dial the “cookie” part of this ice cream up to 11. If you’re a fan of equal parts cookies and ice cream, this is the flavor for you. Best paired with a satisfying crunch.
Raspberry sorbet: I enjoy a good sorbet, especially being lactose intolerant, and this is hands down the best I’ve ever tasted. It’s refreshing yet refined, and the flavor is uncommonly rich for a sorbet. Best paired with a classic femme fatale mystique.
Chocolate: This rich milk chocolate ice cream perfects a classic flavor. It tastes expensive, like the type of chocolate people in TV shows dip strawberries into. Best paired with an air of confident elegance.
Cotton candy: The best word for this ice cream is truthful. You wanna eat a bowl of cold condensed cotton candy? You’ll be satisfied. Best paired with a childlike sense of wonder.
Vanilla: You know, I never thought I’d be in a position where I’m publicly reviewing vanilla ice cream. It’s a classic flavor with Moo Thru’s signature creaminess. Best paired with a disregard for uniqueness.
Coffee: It’s very strongly coffee flavored, with enough creaminess to make it comparable to a smooth, sweet latte. Coffee ice cream can be a bit of an acquired taste, but this is certainly a taste worth acquiring. Best paired with a minor caffeine addiction.
Mounds: A subtle vanilla ice cream complete with flavorful coconut shreds and offset by sweet milk chocolate chunks. Best paired with a toothpick.
