Every year around where I live there is a Scottish Games and Festival that people come from all around to visit. So I decided to check it out for the first time this year. So many kilts...anyway, they were selling irn-bru and since I've read about it on the board I decided to try it. Well, I must say that must be an accquired taste. I found it so incredibly sweet I could barely drink it. Or maybe I have to be hungover to enjoy it? |

Don't worry. It's extremely sweet with the most artifical taste ever. I've never been able to determine exactly what it's supposed to taste like other than it's so sweet that the mere thought of it makes my teeth ache!

Haha. Thanks. Yeah, I guess I just expected it to taste more "orange-y" given its fluorescent color. |

It's sugar in a bottle. Unless your Scots you can actually feel your teeth rot while drinking it.

And yet, for some strange and no doubt psychosymptomatic reason, it seems to help cure my hangovers, oddly enough. |

Sounds like a disease... Irn-Bru vs. Swine Flu. |

Irn-Bru is ok, my preferred Orange Coloured fizzy stuff in Lucozade though.
It's not just for hospital. |
