It's one of Scotland's best-loved biscuits, traditionally served with a cup of tea or coffee and fondly associated with tea breaks and visits to friends and families for more than five decades.

Now, a beer company has launched a new Tunnock’s Caramel Wafer-inspired stout called Metric Tunnox.

The beverage was created by award-winning English brewer Glen Affric Brewery, who pride themselves in producing an eclectic range of beers for the modern palette.

Metric Tunnox is proving to be a big hit since its launch.

The 9.5% Tunnock’s-inspired stout has been created in collaboration with the Craft Beer Channel, and has been made using only traditional brewing ingredients, including eight speciality malts – no adjuncts.

Metric Tunnox has only gone on sale recently, but it seems there's already a lot of love for it, with Scots craft beer specialists The Wee Beer Shop describing it as “one of the fastest selling beers we’ve ever had”.

The Wee Beer Shop say Metric Tunnox is currently sold out due to incredible demand, but you can visit their website here for stock updates.
