Just trying this stuff for the first time. Glass bottle. It's better than diet juice or other similar juices like Coke Zero etc. Still not a patch on the normal Irn Bru though. Drinking this stuff fairly makes you realise just how much sugar there must be in a normal can of Irn Bru though! :eek1:
What's the TC verdict. Good? Bad? Better than the normal stuff or not as good?

Haven't tried it but will likely be underwhelmed.

Irn Bru is *, so I'd imagine this is even more *.

Love the stuff
For a drink with no sugar it certainly tastes close to the real deal -

It really does taste gooooooood!

I love it aswell, there is very little difference between the real stuff and extra imo.
Although the real deal will always be my go to for a hangover :giggle1:Artorias likes this. -

I think the difference is noticeable, the original is far nicer. Read they're going to be changing the original recipe as well, so it contains less sugar, bit concerned about that.
From what I gather the stuff they put in sugar free fizzy drinks makes them just as bad for you, so if people are drinking irn brutal xtra for health reasons, probably better off just buying the normal stuff, or if you're seriously conscious about it, drink water.Gyp Rosetti likes this. -

Irn Bru Extra is one of the best sugar free gingers around. However sugar free ginger is about as pointless as non * alcoholic lager.
Either go baw deep with the real stuff or drink water.Gyp Rosetti likes this.
