I should have made this explicit: I am a special case, and you should take my analysis cum grano salis. As an undergrad, I had a few very bad episodes with alcohol, and I'm hypersensitive to it as a result. Whereas it overpowered my senses, many of you guys may not even notice the taste. Before buying the pint, I spoke to a relative who assured me that most bourbon ice creams taste of brown sugar, not the alcohol, which is why I took the risk.
Tl;dr: You'll need to try it for yourself. I'm a little bish when it comes to the alch, yo.

Dark chocolate is superior, but this is still better than yo' momma's ice cream.

I have yet to scoop WAC, so that's why I hurried over to Target.. OCC is my #1 all-time & Everything But The.. is my #4! So based off your opinions with those two flavors, it looks like I'm in for a real treat here!
WOW! Your Super Walmart definitely puts mine to shame when it comes to the ice cream department.. I see that HD Peanut Butter Pie! Have you scooped it yet? I can't find it anywhere.. If so, how would you compare to Graeter's Chocolate PB Chocolate Chip or B&J PB Cup??? Nonetheless, you definitely picked up some top flavors!
Heading to scoop Candy Bar Pie at the local scoop shop later tonight.. Going to check for OCC pints as well, going to suck paying $7 a pint that they charge in scoop shops though!

They must have some really good subliminal marketing strategy I'm not aware of. Every time I see it I want to buy it, even though I know it's chit.
On the other hand I always feel compelled to pass up Turkey Hill for some reason, although from experience their stuff is actually pretty damn good. Must be the artwork/logo or something.

You're probably very correct about the marketing. Turkey hill containers look terrible. They do have some half decent stuff.
I will post a review. Gonna take me a month or so. Unless I try to finish my next 2 months of bulking with a rage of pints. I did not really enjoy Graeter's Pumpkin, but this Pumpkin Cheesecake could be promising...My path to contest prep:

^bj pumpkin cheesecake > Graeters pumpkin. Only Graeters I've tried. Took advantage of bogo but vanilla choc chip is only one I've tried. Also score Praelines and Cream. Got Jenni salted caramel (wife wanted to try) I was leaning towards dark chock or brambleberry. Soon.
What is the verdict on 3 twins? Saw cardamom, mint, and lemonPL Log

Im about the same stats as you...what are you bulking at? I have like 4-5 pints in the freezer but I like to eat a serving or two from a different pint every night. I just got a nasty sinus infection so no gym for the next few weeks. I'm still gonna eat my bulking calories though . I need to "get better."

Just went to a Ben & Jerry's scoop shop for the first time since I was a little kid. The smell of the waffle cones brought back memories.
Anyways, they had a bunch of OCC pints that I was tempted to snag up, but I decided to pack a pint instead. I stood in the shop for a good 20 minutes debating whether to get coconut 7 layer bar or candy bar pie. Then it hit me:
Ended up doing half and half. Hopefully it works out.

Jennis Salted Caramel. Bleh. Pretty terrible. Just tasted like burnt marshmallow. My wife, who likes caramel more than me (and picked it out) ate like 3 bites. Honestly probably one of the worst caramel ice creams I've had

OCC and now Dublin Mudslide? Da Fuk is BnJ doing? If they keep coming out with flavors like Candy Bar Pie (which i have yet to try) then ill let it be, but damn they are letting go of some solid flavors. Id rather see things like
Cheesecake Brownie
Banana Split
Cherry Garcia
Strawberry Cheesecake
go to the graveyard instead.

^^ agree with all but cheesecake brownie, really liked that one.
Yoplait Black Cherry Greek Froyo
First time trying this lineup, pretty good. Doesn't have that sour taste that GY typically has. Uses cherry swirls rather than pieces like Cherry Garcia which is another plus. Would definitely consider buying this again.Oakland Raiders--Toronto Raptors--Toronto Blue Jays--San Jose Sharks
