      Yeah, it doesn't taste as good as it used to. Back in the day, the best way to taste Iron Bru was in one of those big glass bottles. The cans tend to give the drink a different taste. The same goes for other drinks like Coca‑Cola that also tastes much better out of a glass bottle than it does a can imo.

    Scot here, the drink was invented as a gamekeeper tactic for hunting the illusive Haggis.
    As any Scot knows, catching Haggis depends on if their left or right leg is longer, and thus run around hills clockwise or anti-clockwise. Irn Bru contains compounds which confuse the Haggis, causing it to reverse it's flight, often resulting in it tumbling down the hill, and not endangering the hunter by putting up a fight.
    Most families in Scotland will have at least one relative who's life has been saved by this essential beverage, and thus we treat it with great respect.

    In Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, we used to have a version called Cape Breton Highlands Irn Bru, which people used to say used a recipe they received from the same people behind the original Scottish version. I can't say if it's true or not, and I never had a chance to compare the two side by side before the Cape Breton beverage company got bought by Pepsi and stopped making it, but it had a really unique taste.

    I love it, that and Vernors are easy to locate in the Detroit area, the area where I tried both drinks. Vernors is historically correct original ginger ale, of which it has no comparison anywhere. No ginger Ale even approaches the fruity bouquet that slaps your tongue every sip with a Vernors. Y I ull literally hate regular Ginger Ale after you try it, there is a feeling of being robbed your entire life when you finally find and sample it, especially in mixed drinks, there is no comparison.

    I've only tried Irn Bru once, but it was a pretty good soda. It kind of reminds me of a soda called "Inca Kola", which itself was created by a British person in Peru, so I'm guessing they were possibly trying to recreate a similar taste with it.
