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.

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.'

Hulk Hogan and Donald Trump's friendship from president getting schooled in ring to WWE superstar ripping shirt at RNC
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DONALD Trump has memorialized his close friend and fellow patriot Hulk Hogan, who made a wild transformation from Barack Obama supporter to MAGA loyalist before his sudden death at 71. The two developed a tight bond throughout wild adventures from the president getting schooled in the wrestling ring to the WWE star ripping his shirt and yelling, "Let Trumpamania run wild, brother!" Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 8 Donald Trump and Hulk Hogan developed a tight-knit friendship before the WWE star's sudden death Credit: X/DanScavino 8 Hogan and fellow wrestler Andre the Giant met at a wrestling match hosted at a Trump Plaza in 1987 Credit: Alamy 8 Last year, Hogan brought down the house when he ripped his shirt during a speech at the Republican National Convention Credit: Getty On Thursday morning, Hogan went into cardiac arrest while at his $11.5 million estate in south Florida. He was rushed to the hospital by first responders and declared dead. His death came after years of health struggles brought on by decades of intense weight lifting and sparring in the ring. In May, he had a "fusion" neck surgery, but quickly got back to work one day later. Just weeks before he collapsed, Hogan was in the hospital, but his wife Sky quashed rumors that his health was failing and said that his heart was "strong." more on hulk hogan INCREDIBLE HULK How Hulk Hogan single-handedly made wrestling a multi-billion behemoth Most fans know Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, for being a wrestling legend who earned tons of championship titles and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame twice. However, in recent years, voters may have seen him crop up more at Trump rallies and, just about a year ago, give a fiery speech at the Republican National Convention. In his jaw-dropping address, Hogan called the president the "toughest of them all" and said he was looking forward to four more years of a MAGA-run White House. "As an entertainer, I try to stay out of politics," said Hogan. "But after everything that's happened to our country over the past four years, and everything that happened last weekend, I can no longer stay silent." Hogan called Trump a "real American hero" and told viewers that he was proud to support the candidate for another term. WWE legend Ric Flair leads tributes to 'close friend' Hulk Hogan who has died aged 71 "At the end of the day, with our leader up there, my hero, that gladiator, we're going to bring America back together one real American at a time, brother," Hogan said. The wrestling legend ended his speech by ripping off a black sleeveless t-shirt and revealing a Trump Vance 2024 shirt underneath as the president watched on and smiled. In his emotional tribute, Trump remembered this speech, calling it "electric" as he mourned his "great friend." "Hulk Hogan was MAGA all the way - Strong, tough, smart, but with the biggest heart," he wrote in a Truth Social post. "He entertained fans from all over the world, and the cultural impact he had was massive [...] Hulk Hogan will be greatly missed!" 8 Hogan said he fondly remembered Trump taking part in WrestleMania 23 Credit: YouTube/WWE 8 Trump is a massive wrestling fan and befriended Hogan before he ran for office Credit: Getty 8 In October, Hogan came to a Trump event at Madison Square Garden in New York City Credit: AP HOGAN PRAISES TRUMP Hogan said that he "learned a lot" from watching Trump in an episode of PBD Podcast that was recorded just months before his death. The wrestler described the president as "personable," and fondly remembered the time Trump went head-to-head against WWE co-founder Vince McMahon for WrestleMania 23. Trump and McMahon each sponsored a wrestler for the event and made a bet that whoever lost the match would have to get their head shaved. McMahon ended up losing, so Trump brought clippers and a razor into the ring and shaved the founder's head as he screamed to the crowd. Hogan admired the future president for taking the bit even further, as he actually agreed to take part in some wrestling action. "We wanted a little something extra out of Trump," said Hogan. Hogan said that they asked if WWE star "Stone Cold" Steve Austin could kick Trump in the belly after the shaving stunt, and Trump said, "Oh, no problem." Hulk Hogan career timeline 1977: Made his professional wrestling debut. 1979: Joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) and gained recognition. 1982: Appeared as "Thunderlips" in the film Rocky III, significantly boosting his mainstream exposure. 1984: Defeated The Iron Sheik to win his first WWF Championship, ushering in the "Hulkamania" era. 1985: Main evented the first-ever WrestleMania, teaming with Mr. T against Roddy Piper and Paul Orndorff. 1987: Slammed Andre the Giant at WrestleMania III in one of wrestling's most iconic moments. 1993: Departed WWF for World Championship Wrestling (WCW). 1996: Shocked the wrestling world by turning heel and forming the New World Order (nWo) with Scott Hall and Kevin Nash at Bash at the Beach, becoming "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan. 2001: Returned to WWE after WCW was acquired. 2002: Had a memorable match against The Rock at WrestleMania X8. 2005: Inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. 2005-2007: Starred in the reality TV show "Hogan Knows Best." 2012: Had his last official televised match for TNA Impact, though he made sporadic appearances in WWE afterward. 2020: Inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame for a second time as a member of the nWo. Hogan also remembered when he first met Trump after they rented out a Trump Plaza hotel for a wrestling event in 1987. He said that he was struck by how humble and friendly Trump was when they first met, and how the billionaire stuck around to watch nearly all of the matches. "He came to the back, met all the wrestlers, just sat down, started talking to us," Hogan said. "He's the same guy now that he was back then; he hasn't changed a bit. He's just a really quality person." 8 Hogan and his wife chatted with the Trump family at the RNC Credit: Getty 8 Trump took part in a WWE tournament one year Credit: YouTube/WWE REPUBLICAN TURN Hogan admitted that he was a staunch Obama supporter before making a shocking u-turn to the GOP in 2011 over a petty issue. The wrestler explained that he was soured by the Democrat leader when Obama used his song Real American for his entrance at that year's White House Correspondents' Dinner. 'I kind of was a little upset that he didn't ask me permission to use my music,' Hogan said in a 2011 interview with Fox and Friends. 'I was a big Obama supporter and kinda, like, believed everything he said he was gonna do,' Hogan said. Hulk Hogan tributes Tributes have poured in for Hulk Hogan following his death at 71 years old. "When I nearly lost my dad 8 years ago, one of the few people who was there for all of it was Hulk Hogan. My heart breaks for Nick and Brooke. Rest in peace, brother." - Charlotte Flair "Saddened To Hear About The Passing of Hulk Hogan…I Guess God Needed An Incredible Angel. R.I.P. My Friend." - Sergeant Slaughter "He Was One Of The First To Visit Me When I Was In The Hospital With A 2% Chance Of Living, And He Prayed By My Bedside. Hulk Also Lent Me Money When Reid Was Sick. Hulkster, No One Will Ever Compare To You! Rest In Peace My Friend!" - Ric Flair "WWE is saddened to learn WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan has passed away. One of pop culture's most recognizable figures, Hogan helped WWE achieve global recognition in the 1980s. WWE extends its condolences to Hogan's family, friends, and fans." - WWE "R.I.P to a legend. HULK HOGAN." - Donald Trump Jr. "Hulk Hogan was a great American icon. One of the first people I ever truly admired as a kid. The last time I saw him we promised we'd get beers together next time we saw each other. The next time will have to be on the other side, my friend! Rest in peace." - Vice President JD Vance The WWE star went on to endorse Mitt Romney for the 2012 election, and he wanted Americans to have a "fresh start." After his death, Vice President JD Vance deemed Hogan a "great American icon and said he was "one of the first people I ever truly admired as a kid." "The last time I saw him we promised we'd get beers together next time we saw each other," Vance said. "The next time will have to be on the other side, my friend! Rest in peace."

Common mistakes that are destroying your healthy hair Haircare experts at Tangle Teezer shared their insight. Not brushing correctly Brushing your hair regularly is one of the most basic, yet effective, ways to keep it looking healthy and maintained. However, mechanical damage from your hairbrush and brushing your hair the wrong way may be doing more harm than good. To avoid excessive pulling and breakage to the hair, the best way to brush your hair is to start at the ends and work your way up to the roots. It's also important to choose a brush that is gentle on hair, but tough on tangles. Not using the right hairbrush for hair type Selecting the right hairbrush for your hair type is essential to maintain healthy hair. Different hairbrushes are designed to work with different hair types, textures, and lengths. Taking the time to pick out your perfect brush is the little thing you can do to make a big difference when it comes to your hair health. For fine hair, a brush with soft-flex teeth is recommended as it can de-tangle hair without pulling or damaging fragile strands. For straight to wavy hair, we recommend our de-tangling brushes with regular-flex teeth, and for thick or curly hair, we recommend our firm-flex teeth and our brushes with a larger paddle size. If you have tight curls and coils, a wide-tooth comb maybe a better match for your hair. Not brushing treatments through in the shower Using treatments is a great way to keep your hair hydrated and healthy. Whether you're using a deep conditioner or treatment masque, it's important to brush it through from the mid-lengths through to the ends of the hair. This will make sure it is evenly distributed through the hair so the treatment can nourish all strands. When brushing through your treatment, make sure you use a brush that is as gentle on wet hair as it is dry. The importance of scalp care in healthy hair Healthy hair starts at the root so bring a scalp brush into your hair care routine has many benefits, as it promotes blood circulation. A scalp brush can help with dandruff, by removing the build-up of old skin cells and products that can lead to an itchy, flaky scalp. Not only do scalp brushes remove the leftover products that can lead to dandruff, but they can also help apply products - from oil treatments to anti-dandruff shampoos - deeper into your scalp. Also, massaging your scalp stimulates pressure points and increases blood circulation, unblocking hair follicles, allowing your hair to grow stronger and healthier. Close to 100 people flooded to comments, where one said: ''Oooh as a greasy haired gal I'm intrigued.'' Someone else would also be dashing to their nearest M&S to snap up the £3 find, ''Ooh I love a clarifying shampoo as someone with thick hair who uses a lotttt of product. Must try this!'' ''Oooh I've been meaning to find a new clarifying shampoo, I'll give this a try!'' chimed in another one. ''Love them but the bottles are an absolute nightmare to squeeze,'' penned a fourth.
