IRN-BRUFrom AG Barr The Original and Best Sparkling Flavored Soft Drink | A Scottish Favorite | 16.9 Fluid Ounce (Pack of 12)

I went to Scotland in July of 2022 and really liked Irn Bru. Before returning to the U.S., I added it to my Amazon Subscribe & Save. Every month, I have a 12-pack delivered and savor it. Sadly, with the new tariffs, I'm going to have to pause my deliveries. I'll miss my favorite soda, but I'll be back once this stupid country gets back to normal.

Love IRN BRU. Was brought up drinking it in Scotland, but it's bloody expensive as an import.

I heard anout this soda on an episode of Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations. I found it right away on Amazon and ordered, especially after reading some of the reviews. I must admit, it does give off a strong initial bubble gum smell (think Bazooka Joe) but the flavor was much more likd than I expected. Very nice, a little different than I am used to but very good all the same. Lower sugar count than I expected too. Less than 1/3 the sugar of a 20oz Mountain Dew (low bar there, but still)I will definitely purchase it again

I feel the need to add this disclaimer - this review was written before the recipe was changed and C@ncer... oops, I mean aspartame was added as the sweetener. If you can find Irn Bru 1901, I still recommend.The flavor has been described as a combination of rust, battery acid and pure magic. For the record: it does NOT taste like bubble gum. Those of you who have had fluoride treatments at the dentist when you were a kid that were supposed to be bubble gum flavored but tasted nothing like bubble gum, this does have a similar smell, which I think is the cause of the confusion.After your first sip of Irn Bru, ya may not be sure if you like it but you continue to drink. Next thing you know, yer voice is deeper & ya seem to be speaking a bit faster, yer chest and arms start to swell as if you just did a hundred push-ups. Those of you who have even a trace of Scottish ancestry will start checking prices of flights to Edinburgh. After finishing yer first bottle, you're still not sure if you like it; 55 minutes later you open another bottle and take a swig of the most refreshing thing you've ever had in yer life. There are now only two drinks in your life; Irn Bru & Glenlivet, but only because it makes yer blood boil to hear people mispronounce Glenfiddich.

Taste like vanilla or some sort of bubble gum. Not overly sugary drink either. Has a slight off aftertaste but not terrible

As an American I've always been super curious about this. Got it and it doesn't disappoint. To me, it's like bubblegum pineapple. An extra nice thing is they use less sugar than most American drinks.

IRN BRU is always the best. The price gets outrageous at times, but if you are patient it comes back down........just like the Flakes.

It felt like I was facing something of a personal test after our order arrived and I opened the lid of my first bottle...could I really possess any Scottish heritage at all if I hated IRN BRU, which I'd never had opportunity to try before?Well, bullet dodged--because my kids and I loved it. However, it was pricey to order this way--and the taste of IRN BRU was such a hit that I actually had to hide the last of the bottles before my kids drank them down like any of the US brand carbonated beverages they are used to.I still have one set aside for myself for Hogmanay...unless my kids have betrayed me and drank the last one without my knowledge.My order arrived in good condition and we enjoyed it a lot. Will order again.
