Out-of-date bottle of Irn Bru up for sale on Ebay for £250

An out-of-date bottle of Irn-Bru is being sold for £250 on eBay .

The limited-edition glass bottle is the original drink recipe, before the Sugar Tax was introduced.

It expired in January 2018, and the bottle was believed to have commemorated Burns Night 2017 .

The limited edition 750ml bottle features a portrait of Scots poet Rabbie Burn, and the label says 'raise a glass to the bard'.

The seller, from Glasgow , has advertised the cost of the bottle can be split into 24 instalments of £12 per month using Buy It Now.

Irn-Bru announced in October they were bringing back a long-lost original recipe which was first created in 1901.

It's not the recipe that was taken off the shelves last year to make way for the lower sugar version, but an even earlier version of Scotland's iconic ginger.

AG Barr , the makers of Irn-Bru , say the 1901 version has reverted to 10.6g per 100ml of sugar, while the present day bru only has 4.7g.
