Inspired by Pontoon’s This Boi Is Chonky stout series, Yom Ice Cream created a new flavor called Chonky Boi. The Chonky Boi ice cream is described as “a fusion of [chocolate and malt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rutters-dipped), with notes of coffee, maple and cinnamon" and it makes the most of ingredients like cream, skim milk, malted barley extract, maple syrup and semi-sweet chocolate. In terms of the experience of eating the ice cream, it is said to have a creamy and smooth mouthfeel with plenty of [complex flavors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fatboy-ice-cream) to appreciate.

The collaborative ice cream promises to stand out to fans of the stout series since the pint packaging references split tones.

Pontoon also created a pairing menu featuring Yom Ice Cream push-pops, an [autumnal new beer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vault-city-dubaistyle-chocolate-pistachio), The Great Punkin’ Spice.
