I believe it's still very popular Oop North, and maybe in Scotland. Barr's used to claim Irn-Bru was made from girrderrs, but I guess they can't any more under the Trade Descriptions Act 1968. Nor can Guinness claim to be good for you (even if it is).

Dunno. I prefer Earl Grey with lemon, myself.
The only effort I put into finding D&B recently was going to the Demu Showcase - where I enjoyed a nice can of the same from the snack bar :)
Plenty of Irn-Bru around - I buy a bottle regularly from many outlets. Apparently it outsells Coca Cola in Scotland - the only country in the world where Coke is outsold.

Irn Bru and battered Mars, staple around Kilmarnock when I call at the chippy there.

Ice cream soda was like a Vauxhall, blow hard and the top flew off.

The message from "Brian Watson" contains these words:
Both in Morrisons!
I don't like my Mars bars beaten to a pulp.
And Kwiksave, I've just finished off the bottle of D&B!
Modern technology, you don't beat anymore you whisk, in this case in and out before it melts.

They don't just batter it with a blunt instrument?
