CAUGHT ON THE HOPS Craft beer prices have rocketed since start of year amid rising costs
Newer-style 440ml Hooch cans are already available in the major supermarkets, with prices starting at £1.68 at Asda.
Hooch first landed in 1995 as the fun, fizzy antidote to the 'boring beer' scene, and quickly earned cult status with its cheeky attitude and unforgettable taste.
The limited-edition can comes after Hooch made its way into pubs and arenas on taps for the first time.
Jacob Barrett, Hooch brand manager, said: 'This isn't just about looking back – it's a celebration of three decades of bold flavour, fun and total rebellion against boring drinks.'
'It's our way of saying cheers to those who've been with us since the beginning, and hello to a new generation of Hooch fans.'

‘Ask me to seduce your boyfriend!' Model spills secrets as a ‘honeytrap for hire' who women get to test partner loyalty
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A GLAMOROUS honeytrap model hired by anxious girlfriends to test if their partners are truly loyal has revealed her tricks of the trade. Dubbing herself the "ultimate temptation", Lana Madison helps women catch cheating boyfriends by flirting with them to see if they'll make a move. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 Lana Madison is a 'honeytrap for hire', seducing boyfriends to see if they'll cheat Credit: Jam Press/@onlylanamadison 7 The model has made hundreds of thousands of dollars from modelling online Credit: Jam Press/@onlylanamadison 7 The model charges $5,000 for her honeytrap services Credit: Jam Press/@onlylanamadison With over 76,000 followers on social media, girlfriends are lining up to hire Lana - desperate for the peace of mind that her services can provide. Lana, 29, said: "They slide into my inbox and ask me to flirt with their boyfriend to find out if he'll cheat." She added: "Spoiler alert – a lot of them will. I didn't plan to become a real-life honey trap. "But once a few girls online saw what I look like and what I do for work, they realised that I'm the ultimate temptation." Lana made $150,000 from men via online donations - cash she used to pay for her jaw-dropping figure. The so-called "honeytrap for hire" said: "If your man resists my advances, he's solid – and if not, well, then you've got your answer. "I'm not out here ruining relationships – I'm just giving women the receipts." Lana, who charges women $5,00 a pop to deploy the all-or-nothing test, said she doesn't advertise her secret job - but it has spread like wildfire through word of mouth. Test results can sometimes be provided to women within just hours of firing off the first risqué text. She revealed: "Sometimes all it takes is one selfie and a flirty emoji. I made £100k in just ONE month on OnlyFans - I thought my family would disapprove, but their next move left me stunned "I've had guys try to meet up the same night. It's honestly shocking how fast they fold." She even told how one client later broke down in tears after seeing her boyfriend's gobsmacking texts. "I knew it, I just needed proof," she told Madison. Despite the tears, Lana touted her services as an honest way of giving women sound minds rather than them "living in the dark". Lana follows her own rule-book too - drawing the line at in-person meetups, and also making sure each girl knows exactly what she'll write before she hits send. 7 Girls are rushing to pay for her services Credit: Jam Press/@onlylanamadison 7 She left one client in tears Credit: Jam Press/@onlylanamadison She said: "It's wild how many men don't even hesitate to give in to temptation. "I don't reach out to anyone on my own. These women come to me and honestly, I get it – I'd want to know too." She also said: "Some girls tell me, 'If he cheats on me with you, at least I know he has taste' – which is kind of sweet in a roundabout way. "Others will thank me for saving them from wasting years of their lives with a love rat." Lana, who was raised in a Catholic household in Texas, said that her life is almost unrecognisable from her teenage years. She said: "I was awkward, quiet and ignored - I used to walk through school hoping no one would notice me. 'Now I get paid to be the girl no one can stop looking at - it's a full-circle moment. 'If being hot pays the bills, then I'm cashing every cheque." 7 She is originally from Texas Credit: Jam Press/@onlylanamadison 7 Lana told her secrets Credit: Jam Press/@onlylanamadison

I circulated a ‘singles sheet' at my wedding – but people say it's ‘humiliating' & they'd ‘take back' their gifts
The bride defended the move after being slammed online AISLE SAY I circulated a 'singles sheet' at my wedding – but people say it's 'humiliating' & they'd 'take back' their gifts Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FOR many singletons, weddings are a great place to meet new people, but one couple have come under fire for their attempt at bringing them together. When Jessica Branda tied the knot back in June she decided to hand out 'singles sheets' with the names and faces of all the single people attending the big day. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 The singles sheet received mixed reviews on social media Credit: tiktok/@jessicabrandaa 2 Jessica defended the choice to hand out the singles sheets Credit: tiktok/@jessicabrandaa But despite her good intentions, many have criticised the move as 'humiliating'. This comes after a video of the single sheets went viral on TikTok, showing off her guest's reactions to the divisive move. In the clip, Jessica, 27, showed off the sheets as her guests laughed and took pictures of them, "it was a hit, highly recommend adding this to your reception and getting everyone's reactions," she captioned the viral video, but not everyone on the social media app agreed. Among the mixed reviews, one person said the idea would be her "worst nightmare" and another agreed they would "absolutely hate this as a single person." "No sorry this is giving humiliation. I'm married but if I was single and a friend did this to me I'd take my gift back and walk out," someone else commented. Meanwhile, others thought the idea could be fun, but only if everyone agreed to being on the sheet beforehand. "I hope you asked people first, but this is fun," one person wrote. But some thought the idea was pointless, and noted that the single guests could've been sat together on a singles table. "Isn't this the point of a singles table? No need to embarrass them," one said. Liam Payne's ex Sophia Smith ties the knot as she shares stunning clips from London wedding Speaking to the Daily Mail, the bride opened up on the controversial move, and admitted she thought it would be something "funny and light hearted." The sheet, which was titled 'Tonight's Most Eligible' with a small headshot of each single guest went down a treat, according to the bride. "I had people coming up to me saying how it was hilarious especially since we included my husband's grandparents," she revealed. And although she didn't ask permission before including people on the sheet she did double check if certain guests were still single. In fact, Jessica admitted she was shocked people took it the wrong way online and went back to double check her guests were ok with it when the video gained traction. Luckily, the singletons took the viral video in their stride. "After reviewing everything, I understand some people may be sensitive to being on a list like that if they're not super secure in themselves and where they are in life,' Jessica added. The bride also stood firm in her decision though, and said the singles sheets were better than putting everyone on a table, as that can be "awkward." Ultimately, her savvy plan failed as no one ended up dating from the singles sheet.
