Tried the sample at their tent in Centeroo last month, and thought it was awesome.
Lo and behold, I checked the ice cream section at my local supermarket this evening while shopping, and there it was! Bonnaroo Buzz. Coffee and malt ice cream with whiskey caramel swirls and English toffee.
It's not cheap -- a pint was $4.95 at my store -- but it was thrilling to see I can 'Roo year round.
It's pretty good, but definitely not my favorite B&J. They sampled it at Roo last year too. According to an email (03/22/11), it was available in Scoop shops in 2010 but only became available in stores in March.
A side story, I ordered it at a Scoop Shop in an airport in April (and keep in mind that I am usually very even-tempered):
Me: "I'll have a small Bonnaroo Buzz please" Woman: "You mean Bananaroo Buzz?" Me: "No, Bonnaroo Buzz" Woman: <pointing> "This one right here? The Bananaroo Buzz?" Me: <voice raising>"NO! BON. NA. ROO. BUZZ. I've been there, have you?!?!?" My friend: "Ok Bon... time to order and walk away... Calm down..."
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

^I just had Phish Phood for the very first time the other day, and I agree, it was overly sweet. Not my thing at all. I'm a Chunky Monkey girl myself.
I don't think I've seen Bonnaroo Buzz in stores out here. I wonder if being physically so far away from Bonnaroo would prevent stores from carrying it.
I do think I like Bonnaroo Buzz of the band themed B&Js. I don't really do much ice cream in general, but I do think that One Sweet Whirled and Phish Food are/were too sweet and I'm not too into cherries so Cherry Garcia is out of the running, which really only leaves Bonnaroo Buzz. Although when One Sweet Whirled came out, I was in the height of my middle school/ high school/ college Dave obsession and would buy it anyway.. Pretty stupid looking back at it!

I have seen it in CA.
Agree with Juggs on the late night whateveritscalled. So good. And I am not typically a vanilla fan.

Then it's probably just my sh!tty grocery store. Seriously, though, I'll have to keep looking. I really like coffee based ice creams.

I love Bonnaroo Buzz, and the Late Night one, because chocolate potato chips are almost as good as Vodka soaked hotties. The Willie Nelson Peach Cobbler is terrific too. I love cinnamon ice creams. Anyone live somewhere that has the Oatmeal Cookie Chunk? That one sounds AMAZING.
What a fat ass. I worked out last night and then went home and had a Drumstick. YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!

I quite enjoyed the Bonnaroo Buzz the one time I've had it. Haven't really looked fer it in local stores yet as I'm not much into sweets...but I'm feelin' a bit of an ice cream cravin' lately.
The killer right now is the flavor they made for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Vanilla bean ice cream with caramel and chocolate-coated potato chip clusters.
That sounds fucking awesome. I'm going to look for it.
Although the Bonnaroo Buzz is good, I'm gonna have to agree with juggs that the Late-Night Snack is where it's at ... Did they stop making the New York Fudge one? IDK if it was available everywhere but they used to always have it here in Jersey but I haven't seen it in a while... same thing with the Willie Nelson Peach Cobbler.
I am gonna have to try this Fallon Late-night snack, it does sound tasty.
Juggs, and others, I can see how Phish Food would be too sweet, because when your are sour, everything taste sweeter. When you are me, you need things to be extra sweet to overcome the natural sweetness that someone like me holds. and I absolutely-fucking love chocolate! ;D
Although its ridiculously expensive. $12 a pint? Yeow!
Wow, they've just opened one of these not far from my house. I have yet to go (mostly because I'm biased to supporting my local ice cream shop) but I vow to try it some time.

You should try B & J's other DMB-themed flavor, RV Septic Swirl. It's the opposite of sweet.

Its crazy good, you won't be disappointed. I discovered it by seeing them on the travel channel and had to order some. I ordered 4 pints, and it was like $70 after shipping.
As good as it was, I can't bring myself to order more just because it cost so much. Wish they had a shop close by me.

I finally got some of the bonnaroo buzz the other day and i think it's pretty good, but not my favorite. I like phish food and cherry garcia a lot. I really want to try that red velvet flavor

I'm really surprised how fast they are growing. It wasn't that long ago they were just one small shop here in Columbus and even though they have a few shops around town now I didn't realise they were expanding outside of here in town. Good for them I guess.

And I don't even really like cake or dessert....but this ice cream is INCREDIBLE!!!!
