Staff Picks: Fall-Themed Flavors Berkey Creamery Should Add

The Berkey Creamery has an extensive list of flavors, many of which get substituted for others during seasons that just make sense. It’s like having Peppermint Stick in the winter and Arboretum Breeze in the summer.

With crisp mornings and leaves beginning to fall, autumn is looming at Penn State. So, some of our staffers came up with fall-themed flavors that should be added at the Creamery.

Michael Siroty: Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin

Did I trick you with the first two words? You probably thought Sweet Cinnamon Apple was coming, but replace that last word with Pumpkin to get a combination of two of fall’s greatest flavors, cinnamon and pumpkin.

This is a scent at Bath and Body Works, and I believe it would make an even better ice cream flavor. So, Berkey Creamery, get to mixing and add Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin to your menu for the coming weeks.

Mikey DeAngelis: Trick Or Treat

I think the Creamery should lean into the Halloween tradition of trick-or-treating by introducing a candy-filled flavor. I picture the Creamery’s signature vanilla as a base, with the most popular Hershey’s Halloween candies mixed in. I say Hershey’s because the Hershey Company is a Pennsylvania company, and that feels fitting for Penn State. I’d mix in Reese’s, KitKat pieces, and Hershey’s chocolate.

Cadyn Gill: Apple Pie

Everyone knows apple pie’s the superior fall dessert. Whether the creamery makes vanilla ice cream with pieces of apple pie or an actually flavored apple pie ice cream, I don’t care. I will be there no matter what.

Kyra Birmingham: Iced Chai Latte

An Iced Chai Latte (with almond milk) is my go-to coffee order, and it truly screams fall. While there aren’t many words to describe it, it just feels like autumn. Iced Chai Latte deserves its shot as an ice cream flavor, and it’d be even better if the Creamery made it with almond milk.

Mitch Corcoran: Autumn’s Delight

Think Neapolitan ice cream, but make it fall-themed. All Berkey Creamery has to do is combine three of its existing ice creams: Apple Cobbler Crunch (white), Pumpkin Pie (brown), and Monster Mash (orange). With this flavor, you get all the fall colors and flavors with Apple Cobbler Crunch and Pumpkin leading the way, and a fun cookie crunch from Monster Mash to put you in the Halloween spirit.

If you’re skeptical about the combination, just think of it the same way as standard Neapolitan ice cream: chocolate and vanilla are the premiere combination, but then strawberry comes out of nowhere and it works. Autumn’s Delight works the same way. It’s perfect.

Joe Lister: Spilled Tailgate Beer

Nothing screams Penn State fall like tailgating. Nothing screams tailgating like a trail of unknown liquid dribbling down the parking lots outside of Beaver Stadium.

Sure, this flavor might not taste good at all. However, this could be a challenge to eat, just like eating a particularly spicy chip or a weird-tasting jelly bean. Whatever you do with it, spilled tailgate beer ice cream is worth a shot.
