I thought I was getting some orange soda or something, but colour me surprised when it turned out to be lethally sweet iron brew. Like the old stuff.
I’m so happy
That’s actually fucking wild, the wikipedia on iron brew doesn’t even mention China at all. Did they reverse engineer the recipe for iron brew lmao
You know it’s genuine Irn-Bru because China still has a thriving steel industry.
You’re not gonna get good Irn-Bru from a post-industrial country because this makes sourcing the girders too costly and so they use cheap imitations instead.
Scotland actually does have old school Irn Bru again, called Irn Bru 1901, which is meant to be the full sugar old-timey recipe. Confirmed for disgustingly tasty.
eh, pretty hit and miss, plus they don’t catch nearly enough flak for their role in the slave trade… The Scots were rampant. For such a small population, they have given a hell of a lot of Carribbean people and towns Scottish names.
At one point Scots owned 30-40% of the Jamaican slave estates, and by some estimates, Scottish men, despite representing about 10% of the United Kingdom’s population, represented 50% of the slave tradesmen in Jamaica, and about a third of British slave traders overall.
is iron brew a iron flavor soda?
Originally sold as Iron Brew, the drinks makers A.G Barr were forced to change the name of the drink in 1946 following a change in the law that stipulated that the marketing of products required to be “literally true”. As the drink did not contain much iron, nor was it brewed, led the company to changing the name to the presently used Irn-Bru
Irn Bru doesn’t taste anything like cream soda. Unless we’re talking about different cream sodas.
Possibly? I’ve only had it once ages ago, and there is a video by a comedian here who described it tasting like creaming soda and I was like yeah that’s vaguely how I remember it tasting. We may be talking about different things though.
I want this elixir but i cannot find it on taobao
