Cadbury Creme Egg and beer lovers rejoice – everyone’s favourite gooey egg is teaming up with legendary beer brewers, Goose Island, to celebrate its 50th birthday. To mark this momentous occasion, fans will have the chance to raise a glass to five delicious decades of the Cadbury Creme Egg with the egg-stra special, Golden Goo-Beer-Lee Creme Stout.

Developed by Goose Island UK’s Head Brewer Andrew Walton, the blend of malted barley, oats, wheat and milk sugar mirrors the rich and creamy texture of the nation’s favourite gooey chocolate egg.
The limited-edition stout is brewed with cacao nibs and vanilla beans that lift the chocolatey and creme notes for a celebratory drink that is smooth, rich and egg-cellently balanced for Cadbury Creme Egg fans to enjoy.

About Cadbury
For nearly 200 years, since John Cadbury opened a grocer’s shop in Birmingham in 1824, Cadbury has been the nation’s favourite chocolate bar. Recently voted Brand of the Year 2019*, Cadbury has a wide range of well-loved delicious chocolate that reminds the nation that there is a ‘Glass and a Half’ of generosity in everyone. The brand’s success is built upon its deep understanding of customers, shoppers and the category, ensuring it continues to evolve to remain relevant. The health and wellbeing of consumers is hugely important and so through BeTreatwise aims to remind people that treats are special, to be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced lifestyle. Portion control and consumer education, through on pack labelling, have a huge part to play in Cadbury’s strategy to ‘inspire mindful snacking’. The brand recently announced its plans to bring all Cadbury products predominantly purchased by parents for children, under 100 calories. As well as this, reduced sugar innovations such as Cadbury Dairy Milk 30% Less help consumers manage their sugar intake. 100% of the cocoa in Cadbury’s chocolate is sustainably sourced through the company’s industry leading Cocoa Life programme, which supports sustainable cocoa farming. This helps secure a positive future for farmers, their families and their communities.
