With the bottles in limited supply, shoppers have been encouraged to act quickly to secure one of the celebratory drinks.

However, Aldi hopes that by enforcing a one-per-customer rule on the bottles, as many Oasis fans as possible will be able to get their hands on the drink.

The new bottles have been crafted using Aldi's award-winning Veuve Monsigny Champagne Brut, with the bottle receiving a new 'Supernova' design to commemorate Oasis's popular Britpop hit.

With the bottles unveiled in-store today, July 7, Oasis fans have already been flocking to the store's Bury New Road branch to pick up one of the keepsakes themselves.

One eager fan from Manchester, Derrick Smith, remarked: "I left at quarter past six and waited an hour before the store opened – the bottle looks amazing."

Other enthusiasts have also reported travelling from beyond Greater Manchester to snag the exclusive beverage.

A devoted Oasis follower, Jack Blake, shared: "I drove from London for the Champagne after I saw the post. I thought, I must try and get a bottle!"

"We're offering shoppers a unique and memorable way to raise a glass to this iconic moment in music history."

The unveiling of the commemorative drink takes place at Aldi's Bury New Road store in Prestwich, which has been temporarily renamed 'Aldeh' in a nod to the Mancunian accent ahead of Oasis' gigs at Heaton Park.
