Merzbow Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 The two special Irn Bru flavors aren't really worth it, sadly. I didn't find either the Ice Cream or Tropical to be disgusting but they didn't taste anywhere as good as a normal can. I drink far too many energy drinks, I try most of the sugar free ones and the multitude of Monster colours. I think Ultra Black might be my fav, a dark cherry flavour.

Paid Members gmoney Posted August 27, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 27, 2023 I had some of the vintage Irn Bru you get in a glass bottle last week, and though I approve of the presentation, and it was pretty nice, it wasn't blow away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wideload90 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Hungover and fancied a full fat caffienated Coca-Cola. Aldi only had disappointing Coke Zero. It's shit. Pepsi max lime is my go to atm, especially if it's on pump at pizza hut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAREBEAR LUVVA Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 If anyone's got any leads on getting hold of Mountain Dew Voltage (or Code Red) in the UK, do please hook us up. It's been an absolute bugger to find since it got banned over here (something to do with one of the ingredients). A couple of places continued to sell it for a while afterwards, then it disappeared completely. It turns up now and again on various websites but it's always out of stock, as if they just haven't taken it off their database or something.

DavidB6937 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Might be a stupid question but does that mean it's not banned anymore? Or they just don't care? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegeta Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Funnily enough I actually popped in an off license last night on the way back to the hotel from wembly and in there they had all the American mountain dew in there, 2.25 for a can but you could taste the difference I just went for an original and not any of the code reds or the others, there was like around 4 or 5 different ones, keep your eyes out some off licenses will have them!

Yep, my local Spar always has them in and always a decent amount of flavours. I cannot stand the original one though. Its grim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I used to get the Mountain Dew Cod Red and Blue Raspberry from a corner shop by me. Corner Shop homies don’t care about no regs. It was actually my Monster replacement when I was cutting down on my energy drink consumption but it was giving me more of a buzz than the Monster was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members BigJag Posted August 28, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 28, 2023 https://www.ibcrootbeer.com/ Is IBC Root Beer available in the UK? It used to be a staple in the American import stores. Sadly it fell foul of some regulations and I've never seen it over here again. Its superior to every other Root Beer. I miss it.

Merzbow Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I'm a big fan of Sarsaparilla, the local Korean supermarket sells a really nice one from HeySong which I think is Taiwanese, it's nicer than the A&W version that I see more often.

Paid Members Gus Mears Posted August 29, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 29, 2023 Let's hear it for dandelion and burdock. A forgotten classic. Agreed on A&W. Getting it in the frosted mug from one of their restaurants is a Real Treat. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
