We have Irn Bru and it's made from girders.
It also has some of the most amazing Adverts
Scotland also has Buckfast. It's not from there (it's from Devon I think) but only the Scottish will drink it.
Wreck the hoose juice!
There are places that serve bucky on tap.
But I wouldn't call it a soft drink.
Only the Scottish could think "caffeinated wine" is a highly desirable beverage.
It's the OG Red Bull and Vodka.
It's popular in some parts of Ireland too
I just spent 20 minutes watching commercials. Thanks!
Me too, but i still don't know what it is? Definitely involves caffeine.
Looks like there's a version of it that is a caffeine drink. But yeah, I'm pretty curious about what it tastes like. Unsweetened and originally a replacement for beer, so I'm going to guess it's nothing like a conventional soda.
I tried it once canned, can't remember the brand but it was Italian. It was slightly sweetened but had this bitterness that hits the back of your tongue in a very unpleasant way then fills the rest of your mouth. I would not recommend it.
And what is a girder?? "Made from girders" is no help at all, as I think of a girder as an architectural support.
Edit: looks like there's some ginger involved, which helps the ginger commercial make slightly more sense.
Edit 2: well, they really do mean steel/iron girders. There ya go. Still no help at all.
Edit 3: people claim it tastes like orange the color but not orange the fruit.
Yeah, if you read the article linked above, it was originally marketed to steel workers as a replacement for beer when on the job. Originally Iron Brew. But the ingredients are a closely guarded trade secret. I'll have to see if I can find some to taste.
THIS IS KOLA CHAMPAGNE
