Martin B Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Just seen an advert for this. Very funny. Completly forgot about Irn Bru, surprised they still make it. Here it is: I love the original snowman! One of the best films ever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tessa the Duchess Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I've never tasted Irn bru, is it alcoholic? Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I've never tasted Irn bru, is it alcoholic? Nope, bright orange and pure sugar . Tastes nice though . Just seen it on the telly! It's brilliant - and shows some of my local tourist attractions. Was it you Claret, who's obsessed with (I mean interested in) mega engineering structures? Did you spot the Falkirk Wheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feemcg Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Diet Irn Bru is THE best hangover cure . Martin, surely you can buy it where you are - it's 'famous' all over the world now. You can also buy Irn Bru chew bars - Marti Pellow's girlfriend sued the company, blaming them for rotting her teeth . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxanne Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I didn't know diet Irn Bru was good for hangovers! My friend brings it down from Glasgow for me.... I shall hang onto it for Christmas and New Year!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I tried Irn Bru once, a long time ago, and I'm afraid I didn't like it much. Never tried it since, so have completely missed it's hangover cure properties, (maybe it's time to try it again ). I do remember the adverts though, very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 It was my brothers and mine favourite pop as kids! Don't know why, it really does taste of girders! Very metallic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahJo Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Hehe - dare I say for the southerners - tastes a bit like Tizer but a bit sweeter, and more orange in colour. Got to admit a psuedo scot, after 18yrs there - it IS the best hangover cure - reminds me to put on xmas shop list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 The first pub I worked had a brigade of wee old men that came in every day, sat in the same seats every day, and drank out the same glasses everyday. And everyday they would drink whiskey and irn bru. It IS a great hangover cure though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must have caffeine in it, drinking coke (yuk) or strong coffee is supposed to cure bad headaches because of the caffeine content. I hate sweet drinks so don't fancy trying it Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
