CADBURY is bringing out a limited edition creme egg flavoured beer.



The chocolate-makers have teamed up with Goose Island brewers to make its first ever creme egg beer - a sweet flavoured stout.

The booze has been brought out to celebrate 50 years of the creme egg and is called the Golden Goo-Beer-Lee Creme Stout.

The beer tastes of malted barley, oats, wheat and milk sugar to mirror the creamy texture of the gooey chocolate eggs, according to the tasting notes.

It's also been brewed with cacao nibs and vanilla beans to mimic the fondant filling of the sweet treats.

The cans of beer come in packs of two 15 oz cans and has 4.5% ABV. A two-pack costs a tenner, making each can $7.00.

We've had a look around and you can buy a cheaper milk - the ingredient that gives it the creamy chocolate taste - stout elsewhere.

A 16 oz bottle of Black Sheep Milk Stout costs just $2.35 from Tesco, giving you an extra 2 oz of booze for $4.50 less.

Of course, the sweet stout from Tesco won't taste exactly the same and you might be forgoing the creme egg taste to save cash.

The creme egg beer is only available to buy directly from Gooseislandshop.com and won't be hitting supermarket shelves.

There are just over 3,000 cans of the beer available to buy - so 1,500 packs up for grabs - but they won't be restocked once they've sold out, so you won't want to hang around.

The beers went on sale Wednesday March 3. 

Remember to always drink responsibly.
