Who here loves Irn Bru?

[elfro89]

...As much as she does?

haha
I used to love it, but here it is like 3 dollars per small bottle and they don't have the diet version here..

 

[elfro89]

Aww really? Here it's the cheapest soft drink available, apart from self branded supermarket crrap.

"Irn-Bru!  Not a source of Iron!"

It's all we drank in Scotland when my wife and I were there. 



Actually I lie.  It's all we drank until 12:00 noon.  Then we switched to beer.

I imported some for myself and marko once, the diet. Was very expensive for a drink, but was probably the best drink I ever had.. :icon_thumright:

I've never heard of it before, but now I kind of want to buy some.

What does it taste like?

 

[line6man]

Oh, the hell with this, I'm not paying $45 for a twelve-pack of soda, and I'm certainly not paying $48 for a six-pack of 300mL cans. :tard:
This stuff is quite pricey online. 

Is it true that it is banned in the US?

 

[elfro89]

I don't think it's banned, but who knows, I gave up long ago trying to figure out which state things were legal/illegal.

Guessing from the ad, it tastes like Dick.

 

[bagman67]

Not LIKE Dick; as good as.

:doh: hahaha.  :toothy10:

You can get it here for $8/6-pack

According to the Wiki, there were problems with some of the colorants used, but they've since changed them so they're compliant with FDA regs here.

Yes, but look at the shipping cost. :dontknow:

Holy Mackerel! I didn't notice that!

Yeah, let the Scots have it.

You assumed it was cheaper, didn't you? :doh:

 

[Cagey]

Well, duh! I read that it was being imported here by some company in, I think, Atlanta, so I figured all the logistics stuff had been worked out. Never even thought to check shipping because what's shipping from Atlanta? Apparently, they're having the stuff flown in an ounce at a time by virgin doves individually blessed by the pope for each trip.
