    I've just come back from living in the Czech Republic where, admittedly to my shock and amusement, I was able to buy Irn Bru both in Tesco and in my local kebab shop.

    Its too much to hope I can find it where I am now, which is Athlone, but I'll be in Dublin this weekend, and i was wondering is there anywhere I can get it in Dublin?

    It's a bit hit and miss, but try any spar you see. I've found it in the big one on Dame Street a few times. Failing that, if you're about henry/Mary Street there's an Asian food shop that I've been able to get cans of it in before. Again, it's hit and miss whether they have it.

    Really craving some Irn-Bru now.....

    A few years ago my friend emailed the manufacturer and they sent him a list of all the shops in Dublin that stocked Irn Bru. Might be worth giving it a try to see if they still have such a list! :)

    It's great when you just happen across it. But every time I've went out specifically buy it, it's always out of stock! Tesco used to do deals on 12 packs of cans but haven't seen it there for an age.
