I LOVE Irn Bru. I wish they would put a pipeline across the Atlantic and let it come gushing into the U.S.A. I would be there filling my bottles on a daily basis. Come on Barr's, start digging the pipeline!!! The best Irn Bru is made in Glasgow and comes in the original glass bottles.

pure dead brilliant
I was born and grew up in scotland and my sisters and I were practically given this stuff as mothers milk. I need irn bru the way americans yearned for coke when visiting foreign lands before coke became so popular. I find the taste both refreshing and satisfying the smell of it alone brings very pleasant memories.
I was introduced to this PHENOMENAL drink by a friend of mine...She lives in Edinburgh...I had a hard time finding it in the US until I came across it at St. Andrews Pub in NYC...
I'm completely addicted now. Lucky for me I can order it online...
Hope the 2 liter and cans are not far behind...I also want to try the Irn-Bru 32

IRN-BRU: A taste of Scotland the GREAT!
IRN-BRU is the best soda out there! I got hooked while vacationing in Scotland, Delicious thirst quencher, Best fruit Soda by far, You Must try it! Bring it to CALIFORNIA, Ive found it in small import shops, But this drink is a Winner & needs to be global!!
I got hooked on this stuff when I visited a friend in England and Scotland! I have already asked her several times to send me a care package FULL of Irn Bru!
An old favourite. I don't buy it very often, but it always tastes great when I do. It also has a unique flavour, which could not be said for many soft drinks.

OMG IRN BRU IS TEH ROXXOR
Not oppressively sweet, carbonated beyond what any American pallette is used to, and surprisingly light in flavor, this drink is an excellent thirst-quencher, and let's face it, is just terribly high in cool-points. A must try for soda afficionadoes, yuppies, Anglophiles, 1337 HAXXORZ and hipsters.
In Scotland this and many of Barr's drinks can still be bought in 750 ml glass bottles with a 20p return value! So not only great drink - but environmentally friendly too!
This drink was something I had never experienced before. My friend arrived back from scotland addicted to the stuff so I tried one. The taste is light, and has a mild citrus flavor. It might take some getting used to, but definately not a bad drink. I wish the U.S. would start selling it.
I've had Scottish friends force this stuff on me twice. Nothing could induce me to try it a third time. It tastes like whatever acid rain leached off an abandoned factory roof in Edinburgh. Iron is one of those flavors that was never meant to be made into a soda.
It is the best of the bubble gum sodas, because it does not have any chemical flavor or after taste. It is bright orange like Lucozade and I am amazed that neither of the products make your tongue the bright orange color. It is sold in my area in the 500ml plastic only, with a $1.99 price.
I no longer live in the UK but while I was there this was one of the drinks I enjoyed. It has a taste of its own. You either love it or hate it. I love it.
Irn-Bru has a truly unique flavor. Only sodas like Barq's Red Cream soda comes close. It has an orange,bubble gum flavor that is truly refreshing. I hate to say it, but I wish that either Coke or Pepsi would buy out the company so they could offer it over in the US. If you want a soda that is like nothing else you've had, give this one a try!
I went to Scotland once (The only time i have been over seas) and i was there for three weeks. After that short time period i am now hooked on IRN-BRU its hard to get here in the states so when i get it i enjoy it. IM ADDICTED. I have friends in Scotland and they send (when they can) me over IRN-BRU and IRN-BRU bars. I think I need help
IRN Bru's taste is so unique that it cannot be described. Although it's color resembles somewhat of watery orange mix, the taste is described differently by everyone who tries it. IRN Bru is a refreshing substitute to Cola drinks being not to sweet or tangy. I have tried every form of the drink including freezing it into a slush and mixing it with alcoholic beverage, and it just gets better and better. I would like to see this drink introduced into the US market..It has serious potential
Scotland (the homeland of Irn Bru) is the only country in the world where Coke is not the number 1 selling soft drink, can you guess what is?
yes, Irn bru
And one day Irn Bru will be the number 1 selling soft drink in other countries too. Think about it, the country that invented the monorail, golf, self adhesive stamps and now Irn Bru (well not quite now, they invented it ages ago). This History virtualy gaurentees the world wide sucess of Irn Bru, but to be on the safe side, go out now and buy every bottle of irn bru you can get your hands on.
i love irn-bru. i was introduced to it by my coach driver in England. his comment about it was "it would knock your butt" it did. it takes a certain taste to like. try it
"Made from girders", or so they say, Irn Bru, Scotland's other national drink (second only to whisky), Irn Bru, is indeed a class product, and speaking as a sort of addict, drinking at least a litre every day for the past five years, it had a wonderful blend of flavours, so much so that I don't think anyone can be sure exactly what it tastes of. Pure class in a glass (bottle).
