Hooch is usually available in cans and bottles and is sold at supermarkets, bars and pubs
In particular, the zesty original Lemon Hooch will be on tap.
The fruity alcopop is usually sold in cans or bottles at supermarkets, bars and pubs.
It's a mix of vodka and real fruit juice, and comes in at 3.4% ABV.
It's launching this month and will be sold for between £5.50 and £5.95, although this will vary across pubs and venues.
The full list of locations hasn't been revealed yet but Hooch has said it will release this soon on its social media accounts.
Hooch is a 90s cult classic that had risen to fame alongside similar alcopops like Smirnoff Ice, WKD, Bacardi Breezer and VK.
Although alcopops had waned in popularity in more recent years, they appear to be staging a comeback.
Yesterday it was revealed that Bacardi Breezers are returning to supermarket shelves years after being discontinued in the UK.
Meanwhile Gen Z has been going wild for the fruity Buzzballz drinks, which are set to launch at their cheapest price in Aldi soon.
Alcopop makers are now not only hoping to provide some nostalgia but also to capture the attention of Gen Z.
Jacob Barrett, brand manager for Hooch, said: "Launching Hooch on draught is a landmark moment for the brand as we celebrate 30 iconic years.
'Aldi, are you ok hun' wine pro exclaims as she calls store's £6.99 pink bubbles a 'crowd pleaser' you need to snap up
"This isn't just a new format, it's a bold new era for Hooch, designed for longer, more sociable summer serves and promises to bring something refreshingly different to the T-bar."
What other drinks are launching in time for summer?
As the summer approaches, brands and supermarkets are thinking more about their drinks offerings.
Morrisons has started selling three flavours of pre-mixed 75cl cocktails for just £6 or two for £10.
The flavours are Bliss on the Beach, Cosmo, or Passion Fruit Martini.
Iconic fizzy drink brand Schweppes has also launched a series of alcoholic cocktails, including the Gin Twist and Paloma Bliss.
These come in 250ml cans for £2.29 each.
Aldi has a range of ready-to-drink cocktail cans selling for a bargain 99p and they come in 13 new flavours.
These include Spicy Margarita and Cocobay Strawberry.
Meanwhile Lidl has a dupe of the popular Whispering Angel rose that costs just £10.99 - half the price of the original £22.50 version.

Shoppers race to Aldi to get their hands on winter must-have item: 'Run, don't walk!'

Customers are rushing to Aldi Australia to grab a range of winter essentials before stock sells out. The German supermarket giant quietly relaunched knitwear tops and jumpers which have been popular among shoppers in recent years. Alex Hourigan, who cohosts the Two Broke Chicks podcast, spotted the latest buys at her local Aldi and boasted about the products online. The knitwear is made from a blend of merino wool and cashmere which retails for no more than $49.99, which is incredibly affordable compared to alternative brands. 'Literally run to Aldi because they've just dropped some wool and cashmere winter basics that are an absolute steal,' Alex said in a TikTok video. The selection includes Wool Cashmere Blend Tops ($39.99), Wool Cashmere Blend Knitwear ($49.99) and Merino Wool Knit Tops ($29.99). All products are available in a range of different shades, including black, cream and grey. Customers were overjoyed with the news of the recent release and shared their excitement in the comments. The German supermarket giant quietly relaunched its knitwear range which has been popular among shoppers in recent years 'They do them every year. Great staples for winter,' one wrote. 'Love!' another added. 'OMG obsessed,' a third wrote. Shoppers are encouraged to act swiftly as products are only available while stocks last in stores. Last month the discount supermarket released a delicious Biscoff mousse as part of a new Autumn range. The tasty dessert is made with a Biscoff crumb base, middle layer of Biscoff mousse and topped with a thick layer of Biscoff spread. Melbourne foodie Nectro Vlangos, better known as Nectorious Papi online, described the latest offering as a 'Biscoff overload from bottom to top'. 'It's heaven in a cup,' he said. Sydney vlogger Samantha Khater also raved about the buy on TikTok and dubbed it 10/10 as it's 'full of flavour'. On Facebook hundreds praised the buy and recommended it as a 'must', but some claimed it was 'too sweet'. 'So good but very sickly by the end,' one wrote. 'Just like with our Special Buys range, we always look to surprise and delight our customers when we add deliciousness to our Limited Time Only range,' ALDI Shopping Expert, Kylie Warnke, said. 'This selection is all about treating your friends, family and yourself with quality meals, tasty treats and desserts without breaking the budget.' In addition to the Food Envy Mousse with Biscoff Spread, Aldi has also released more than 250 other items this month including Sweet Haven Apple Pie Spring Rolls ($4.99), Toblerone Lava Cakes ($4.99) Ready, Set.. Cook! Beef Stir Fry Meal Kit ($13.99). In March Aldi brought back its popular cast-iron cookware range that's been compared to high-end French brand Le Creuset. Aldi's famous Crofton cookware collection will return to the 'Special Buys' middle aisle from March 12, while stock lasts. The range features a 24cm frypan ($9.99), 40cm frypan ($12.99) mini pots and pans ($4.99), containers ($9.99) and kitchen utensils ($1.99). The budget retailer caused a frenzy among shoppers when the range sold out previously - and it's likely to happen again. The affordable products have been likened to the look and quality of Le Creuset, which costs hundreds of dollars. The $4.99 mini pan looks similar to the $410 Le Creuset Signature Cast Iron Saucepan while the $9.99 frypan resembles the $320 Le Creuset Signature Cast Iron Frying Pan. The cookware range will be available in red, green and blue, and the containers and utensils are dishwasher safe.
