pukasonqo is right, it's a Scottish soft drink. It's the national drink!  http://www.irn-bru.co.uk/adverts/favourite-ads.html has some ads for the drink - hilarious, especially the snowman one! I really miss Irn-Bru...

Umm, DH says Irn-bru tastes like creaming soda!
 But he's obviously insane. It's got like 32 fruit flavours in it, bright orange fizzy drink and well, it has an interesting taste. Not sure how I'd describe it, but they do say it's made in Scotland from girders!

Wow, it looks really interesting! I'd try it just for the colour alone! I liked the story too - how Coca Cola couldn't beat it. It must be really good soda! It's funny - McDonalds in Peru has Inca Kola and Coca Cola, in Scotland they have Irn-Bru and Coca Cola. I don't know of any other countries like that? |

i don't know of any other countries...actually i didn't know about peru until you told me!
i wish they didn't have macca's but...what can you do? at least they didn't get it until the late nineties! we grew up with inca kola and my dad used to work as a teen in the bottling plant in trujillo...i like the idea that coca cola couldn't break it!! |

wow! that's such a coincidence!
same with my dad, they were allowed to drink as much as they wanted but they couldn't take anything out of the factory! no wonder we both like those drinks so much! |
