Its not a protein shake, it’s a Time Machine

My new favorite summer flavor! I was concerned it might not live up to tasting like the root beer floats of my childhood summers and was happy to realize my concern was unfounded. To make it even better put a shake in the freezer for about an hour so that it gets to the “slushy” stage and you’ll swear you went back in time of slow summers and childhood fun.?

Odd flavor

It has a very strong cinnamon flavor that throws off the whole concept of a root beer float. It’s not the worst thing but I definitely wouldn’t purchase again.

    AMAZING!!

    One of the best flavors I have tried so far, it taste a lot like root beer, I think it may throw some people off because it’s not carbonated. I really like this flavor and will continue to buy it. Highly recommend, I haven’t had any odd tastes or separation. I bought mine in a Dallas Sams, not online.

    Almost perfect!

    Besides washing down supplements which come in gel caps, I sip the new, refreshing, Root Beer Float Protein Shake throughout the day. At first sip, the flavor seemed rather flat to me...i.e., shy of the root beer flavor which I've come to know and love. Luckily, I happen to have Root Beer Extract on hand! Now I add just a little bit of the extract (1/4 to 1/2 tsp) to each bottle of Premier's Root Beer Float Protein Shake. I shake the bottle, and...mmmm...delicious!!! I know everyone has a different sense of taste, so this applies to my own. My granddaughter loves this new Protein Shake exactly as formulated! My daughter loves it either way. We drink it at room temperature, cool out of the frig, or freeze it and drink it slushy as it melts. ...

    I would buy this product again and again!

    Since I am lactose intolerant, I don't use these shakes very often. HOWEVER, this flavor is so very worth it! It is absolutely the best tasting protein shake I have ever tasted! This is absolutely worth taking lactase supplements for. Please make it available all the time!

    I would buy this product again

    I am doing a preoperative liquid diet. I love how this shake tastes. It's best cold and over ice. I gave it a 4 star just because I would give any protein shakes that tasted good that because of the smell. They all smell horrid. If I drink from a staw I don't get the smell as much, but the smell almost turns me aways from drinking them. You should try making other shake flavors like dreamsicle or banana cream, or idk.

    Make it a regular flavor

    PLEASE BRING IT BACK AS A REGULAR FLAVOR! This is one of the best flavors. I have been consuming premier protein shakes for years and many are simply to sweet for me, but this one is really good, my favorite and I have tried all except pumpkin. I really would love to have this one available on a regular basis.

    I was told it will be back around May!

    I called last fall to ask why it was discontinued, and if it would be back. The very nice person who answered the phone said it is reallly only available for a limited time, apparently they see it as a summer flavor. If I remember correctly, it will be back in May.

    No rootbeer flavor to me.

    I drink premier protein as a meal replacement. I was so excited about this flavor as I love rootbeer floats. But I was let down with the flavor. To me it didn't taste like rootbeer at all. I was bummed. I will still drink them, just wish I could taste the rootbeer.

    BEST FLAVOR - PLEASE KEEP IT

    This is the best flavor I have tried! It taste just like a root beer float and it is so so yummy! It curbs those desires for a sweet treat but it is so much better for you. I really hope they keep it around as a regular flavor because I don't think I can go back!

    Good but...

    Tastes like Root Beer enough. The main complaint is there are clumps, I shake the bottle, then open and shake it again like crazy. Have started to put in the blender to mix, and it's better. I probably won't buy it again. I get these for when Im on the go.

    It's not horrible but not one of their best shakes

    I was really excited to try this flavor because I love root beer floats. I'm a little bit disappointed in the taste. It does have a bit of a root beer float taste but its lacking. However, I have never had a diet root beer float before so it might be more similar tasting to that. It's not horrible and I will finish the 12 pack I bought. I at least enjoy that it's a different flavor so I don't get sick of the same flavors over and over again. It's a 50/50 if I would recommend.

    Would love to see it as a permanent flavor

    I recently went through Bariatric Surgery and was tired of the basic vanilla/chocolate flavors. This shake tastes just like a melted root beer float, especially when frozen or on ice. So good! Stocked up incase they discontinue :) Side note - when I was on the pre-op diet and was using these shakes as a meal replacement I lost 15 pounds in 2 weeks and wasn't really hungry at all!

    Good breakfast replacement

    I don't always have time in the morning to make breakfast, so I decided to try these shakes. They do the job and taste good, however, this flavor doesn't taste like Root beer to me. I don't mind since I still like the flavor, but keep that in mind if you are craving real root beer flavor

    Clumpy

    It has a chemical taste to it and when you start getting to the bottom of the carton, there are clumps! The clumps literally make me gag every time I get one! I've tried so hard to get past it and drink what I bought. But it's a struggle. It does offer a good amount of protein though, so I gave it a 2 star for that.

    So good

    I love this flavor so much. Actually one of my favorites! Please please please keep this as a flavor forever! It's one of my favorites and I just bought 10 of them! I have been trying to lose weight without drinking root beer soda. This is a great substitute to satisfy the craving and a good amount of protein.

    Disgusting - tastes like pepto bismol

    I love premier protein shakes but this flavor was disgusting. The root beer flavor is only present when you first taste it. Then it turns into a strange vanilla flavor. The ending and the aftertaste is straight up Pepto Bismol - the thick pink kind. I couldn't even finish one shake. I will stick to Caffe Latte and Caramel

    Lactose intolerant? STAY AWAY

    This product tastes alright (not great but OK if you like rootbeer, which I do) but for lactose intolerant individuals it is absolute poison. Other flavors are fine but this apparently has some artificial sweetener that upset my stomach plus a whole dose of lactose.

    Please make this available everyday!

    The root-beer float is now one of my favorite flavors! I can't imagine it going away. It's is a great mix between cool, creamy and a hint of that sweet root-beer to bring it all together. I feel like this is flavor makes the drink feel lighter and not as heavy in my stomach.

    I LOVE THIS FLAVOR!!!

    I absolutely live on this brand! Having lu er damage my doctors have advised a high protein diet. Woth Premier Protein I can easy get my 150gms in everyday. It is the perfect supplement to my fresh food diet. I Only wish rootbeer float wasn't going away, and I can no longer access favorite flavor, bananas and cream. Still, there are no Bad flavors woth Premier.

    Please bring this flavor back! It's delicious!

    I have Cystic Fibrosis and are prescribed replacement shakes for nutrition. My dietician suggested the Premier Protein as I have tried many other replacement shake brands that I just can't tolerate. The root beer flavor is the BEST I have ever tried, and I have tried MANY other brands and flavors. My dietitian is now saying I can't get this flavor any more - PLEASE, PLEASE bring it back! It is delicious! It is also one of the only brand flavors I've been able to drink.

    Something is not right

    For a few years we have been drinking the Premier protein drinks and loving them. The root beer float is my personal favorite. This time when I opened the caps there was a thick congealed layer at the rim. It was on the liquid line, and on the cap. I shook the bottles vigorously but the thickened portion was still evident as I drank the bottles. This thankfully has not happened in any other flavor. My coworker has taken to straining her rootbeer float flavor through a tea strainer to remove the lumps. My bottles do not expire until next year, so freshness is not an issue.
