Going to Edinburgh, Stirling and St. Andrews Scotland any suggestions?

Depending where you are (can't see your location on the mobile app) you can sometimes pick IrnBru up in Publix.

Oh and we had the IRNBRU. Wife loved it, would be cool to be able to make here. She liked how it tasted like bubblegum.

It does taste like bubble gum! i talked to a Scot in an Indian Takeout about IRUBRU because drunkenly i exclaimed what the heck is this, it tastes like bubblegum. He just responded, what the heck does cocacola taste like. I just said fair enough and that was the end of that conversation. haha

The first post that mention IRN BRU motivated me to get some. I immediately ordered a case on Amazon. My wife says in taste like rust. Maybe rust flavored bubble gum.

Which is funny as the old adverts for it claimed it was "made from girders"

Maybe it's like Heineken, Stella and Guinness. They just don't travel well and taste so much better from their origins.

This may also explain why it doesn't taste the same. FDA

United States

Irn-Bru and Diet Irn-Bru have been formulated since 2002 by A.G. Barr plc to meet the regulations for food colouring of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Ponceau 4R, used in the UK formulation, is prohibited by the FDA. Barr uses alternative food and drink colourants manufactured by a U.S. company approved by the FDA. The product labelling also meets U.S. labelling standards on nutritional information and bar code. Compliant Irn-Bru is solely imported by Great Scot International in Charlotte, North Carolina, who supplies distributors and retailers throughout the U.S. It is only supplied in 500 ml.

It's supposed to taste that way! In Uni it was the go-to hangover cure if another beer wasn't available!!!

Went to a wedding in Edinburgh where the preferred drink was Irn Bru and vodka. Very classy affair.

We used to load up on that as students. Take a four pint pitcher, put a bottle of vodka in it, top it up with irn bru and that would set two of us on our way to a cheap night
