Why is Irn Bru Scotland's national drink?

As famous as the kilts, bagpipes, and haggis of Scotland, Irn Bru's bottle is a well-loved Scottish drink in a distinguished design of its own bearing the orange and blue color combination. The use of colors is derived from the Barr family's tartan with the pattern revised in 1997 and registered in The Scottish Register of Tartans.

Barrs' Irn Bru has been a part of the Scottish culture with this soft drink representing one of Scotland's iconic symbols. This love for Irn Bru started in 1901 when steelworkers at the Glasgow Central Station drank too many a bottle of beer to relieve their thirst. AG Barr soothes these hardworking people's need for a revitalizing beverage, uplifting their energy level without getting tipsy while taking on their heavy job. Since then, Irn Bru becomes the favorite drink in Scotland. So when they released an advertising campaign called "The Other National Drink" first mounted on a billboard at the Glasgow Central Station, there had been minimal protests against the tagline.

This brand is so successful in Scotland that it overtook the top spot in the country away from world-leading carbonated soft drink products. The Scottish market sells a bottle of Irn Bru faster than the speeding bullet and even retails 20 cans per second in other countries!

In recent years, the present logo is revised to portray strength and an industrial feel that is nostalgic to the first time Irn Bru was launched into the steel working sector.
