I previously worked for Barrs IRN-BRU as an engineer on the production lines, earlier this year i spoke to one of the factoy managers who happened to be just back from Brisbane as they had signed an agreement with a company to bottle IRN-BRU there and they sent them the moulds to blow the bottles also.
So if it is not already available then it will be soon i hope.

Yeah, there is a British shop in Brisbane that sells Irn-bru. Don't know the name but I'm sure if you do a search on this forum you will find out. :)

You can get it in Sydney in some of the major supermarkets like Woolworths. I also saw it a lot in Perth (I think it is made in WA).

The Diet version isn't very good, I think they use a different artificial sweetener (Dioet Coke isn't as nice over here either).

If you could just get Scottish chips!

I have seen it in woolworths for the same price as coke.

There's a little corner shop round the corner from us in Manly (Bayside) that sells it, no dearer than the other fizzy stuff available.
