Tesco jumping on bandwagon n selling.

Tried 1901 for the first time over the past 24 hours.

Definitely different from the old stuff. Frothiness is weird.

As a hangover curer however it's 10/10.

Is the good stuff finished? Just been into Sainsburys and Home Bargains neither of them even had a space for it as if its out of stock.

[Jason King]

Tons of bottles in the end of aisle "sell this overpriced shit to idiots" in Tesco yesterday.

Aye Tesco are late to the party with selling this.

[Melanius Mullarkey]

£2 in Tesco Hilltown.

I'm still changing my mind on it. I find it hard to believe it has as much sugar as it claims. It's got a similar kind of dryness and strange aftertaste to it that you get in diet drinks. It just doesn't taste of... much. 

[Stevieda]

They need to stop messing about and bring the good stuff back.

[Deen1903]

Bring real Irn-Bru home

Shut up mate, it’s fucking tremendous.

Yesterday I finally tucked into my first bottle. I really enjoyed it, thought it was really nice. Been so long since I had a can of the "real" stuff that I can't remember how that tasted, but this is definitely better than the current stuff being served up. 

[Ross.]

Had a bottle on Christmas day and another yesterday. Much better than what passes as the normal stuff now but not quite what i was. Ideally, sales will be good enough that they can justify selling the real thing along with the reduced sugar one.

I tried the 1901 stuff when it was first released and quite liked it but could've happily done without.

 

But I've got right back into it, and I've now decided it's really good.

 

When are they cancelling it? I need to stock up.

 

 

[Ludo*1]

Really like the 1901 stuff. It's not the same, but it's as close as. Only one I buy.

[Andy_K_97]

They're daft if they don't continue to sell the 1901 stuff as it's quite clearly better than the regular stuff. They definitely chose the wrong option when they halved the sugar levels, if they'd raised the price I don't think people would have minded all that much. 

[Honest_Man#1]

If they continue with the 1901 or just go back to the original classic recipe then I’ll keep buying it with the higher price.

Otherwise I’ll finish what I’ve got and go back to other drinks.

[Venti]

Just enjoying the '1901' with a chippy whilst it's available.

Perhaps they felt they had to show us how shite it could be before hitting us with the price hike

I see where you're coming from but surely it'd be a bit of a long gamble given that the new, crap recipe has been around for almost 2 years. I just think they didn't realise just how many people would be willing to pay more to get the good stuff.
