hi i'm in perth and we get diet Irn Bru yum yum

Quite a stoush(/storm in a teacup) over their latest ad today.

Trouble Bru-ing for Drinks Firm

It's a wonder any of us have teeth left in our heads. My childhood was full of Accord juice, jam pieces, jubilees, spacedust and any other sweet crap I could get my hands on!

What particular delights did you lot get?

Irn bru,Pepsi,pickled onion crisps(God ill miss them,do they have them in Oz?),Lemon Bonbons,blackcurrant lollies,and those little spaceship things that melted in your mouth with enough sugary stuff insdide to keep you up all night.
I never put on an ounce either,now if i even think about it i add to my beergut! Lol.

Can buy it in Mackay, Qld at the local Woolies. Plastic bottle but not 2 litre, maybe 1.5. Tastes the same although bottled by an Aussie firm under licence. Was drinking it the other day at work and the locals were asking what it was. "Its made from GIRDERS and the best hangover cure in the world" says I. They tasted it and said it tastes like cream soda. Fu%&ing uneducated ppl.

Spangles, Aztec bar and my fav, a stick of rhubarb after a dug has pished all over it, dipped into a paper cup full of sugar. Delicious

Just bought our first bottle of bru in Melbourne, found it on the shelves of our local Safeway of all places. It was`nt there last weekend............
It appears to be bottled in Aus and our oldest proclaimed the diet version not as good as back in Scotland.

I`ll stick to Boags Draft or Carlton etc, etc, etc

dlt

You get it in Woolworth's in Kallangur, same price as coke, in a 1.25 litre bottle.

PMSL at Rhubarb,i remember eating that one hot summers day it came with a brown paper bag full of sugar.
I don't think the dog piss was optional either.

Most Safeway stores in Melbourne sell it. Both full-sugar and diet versions, 1.25 litre bottles. $1.78.

I prefer the Vimto cordial, 2L for $6.95 though.
