I've been having it with cinnamon pork rinds and enjoying it. There is no soy taste like I've found with soy milk derivatives, and it's sugar free. I haven't tried just drinking it on it's own without the sweetener.
I'd like to know more too. Dr. Hallberg mentioned that she uses hemp seeds, and there are more hemp products showing up in Trader Joes now. Seems to be a protein source for vegans, but all I can think of is rope, so haven't bought anything yet
I've not tried it, but I used to drink almond milk which has similar nutritional counts. I enjoyed it and saw no untoward effects. If you enjoy the taste, I'd advise you (OP) to drink it as you would almond milk, but be alert to cravings, weight gains, anything that makes you wonder if it is appropriate for you.
There is a thread here somewhere about hemp milk. My favorite post notes that it "tastes like despair."
I have not tried it myself, but did buy a thing of hemp protein powder many years ago.....i went straight back to whey or using eggbeaters for my shakes.
