A lot of smaller newagents and corner shop places stock them. Irn Bru you can pretty much get anywhere.

My local corner shop has most of the Barrs range. My favourites are Irn Bru, Limeade and Red Cola.

Poundstretchers also sell some of the Barrs range.
Aarghawasp!

Tizer is still around you get it in pretty much the same places as the Barrs stuff although I did see 2l bottles of Tizer on sale in my local Home Bargains for 79p the other day good if your a fan of it.

I don't know if Barr's still do the glass bottles that used to be in newsagents everywhere, but it's usually 2L plastic bottles in supermarkets & smaller shops nowadays.

We regularly buy Irn Bru & Cream Soda, but I've also seen Tizer, Ginger Beer, Red Kola, Limeade & Cherryade. Asda is currently doing all (except Irn Bru) at 2 x 2L bottles for £1.50.

Have a look at the AG Barr website as there are other flavours listed (and I see the glass bottles are there too).

I saw barrs in glass bottles in Scotland 2 years ago in newsagents. It tasted better out of a glass bottle for some reason

My local superdrug sells small bottles of limeade, cola, cream soda and cherry and I've seen 2ltr bottles as well as cans in my local Tesco.

There's a shop near my Mum and Dad's house where they sell it and not only that, it's in glass bottles and there is a deposit on the bottle.
Proper old school.

I often pop in there for limeade. i love it.

Morrisons sell the glass bottles, they're called Barr's Originals, not cheap though.

Used to collect the ginger bottles and take them to the shop for sweeties, lovely maccaron bars.
