Used to drink it with a friend of mine. Haven't drunk it since they left. It's actually not a case of I can't face drinking it without them or anything like that, it just hasn't happened.

Gotta try it then!, never really been a fan of Irn Bru, im guessing its just the same but without sugar?

moaningmags 28-12-2010 19:28

Re: The what are you drinking now thread
 
I used to drink normal Irn Bru until a visit to the dentist (who terrifies me) He told me I had to stop as it was staining my teeth.
I switched to Diet that day (pretty sure it was at least 8-10yrs ago) and have drank it ever since.
I recently tried Irn Bru and could feel the sugar clamping onto my teeth and it tasted sickly sweet, not nice at all.

Diet Irn Bru has been around since 1991, however I am not sure how easy it is to get hold of outside Scotland.

Its what I drink most of due to being diabetic and can't touch the regular stuff.

In Scotland Irn Bru has always been the best selling drink and Coke was always second. However in recent years I think coke has caug up.

He is American and lives there as well so finding a Tacobell is easy for him.

The are 2 in the UK though.

It does. It gives you (well, me) far worse hangovers than you would with other beers given the same amount, and I don't think it's due to it being stronger. I'm not sure why it is. There's a myth going around that it would contain formaldehyde as a preservative but apparently that's just a myth.

I might drink one or two bottles if it's the only lager in a Thai restaurant, but I generally avoid it. Even when in Thailand...
