What's an irnbru and how does one go about extracting its flavour?

An Irn Bru is a drink that tastes, well, Iron Brewy.

Irn Bru can't be explained, there isn't really anything similar to compare it to.

Mustapha Posted Apr 28, 2001
So in Zen-like fashion, it must be experienced?
Now I'm intrigued...

Beware, this drink, of all its orange and fizzy ness, and sheer sugar content, is the most popular soft drink in scotland, more so than Coke (tm, r etc) You may become addicted. Put it this way, the sugar flavoured crisps didn't last long!

I must confess to never noticing where they sold it in glass receptacles. How strange...
...But they did once have a promotion day in the city centre and gave everyone a can. I ended up with about 12 by 2 o'clock

Orange Faygo. A very cheap soft drink that come in a 3 liter bottle for about 99ยข. All it is is carbonic acid, high frutose corn syrup, aritificial orange flavor, and artificial orange color. Basically, it's a fuzzy orange flavored sugar rush. The Insane Clown Posse are always singing about Faygo and the many flavors it come in.
