Wetherspoons Spring Beer Festival

The JD Wetherspoons pubs across our area are joining in the chain’s latest International beer festival, which runs from 28th March to 13th April. This sees  a selection of 50 real ales offered on rotation from breweries across the UK, 10 of which have been brewed by guest brewers from around the world. Wetherspoons have produced a 36 page booklet for their beer festival which can be picked up in the pubs or downloaded from their website, this gives you all the background to the guest brewers and lists of all the featured beer with tasting notes, numbered 1-50 so you can tick off the beers you have tried and play beer bingo! The beers from the international guest brewers always create a talking point at the bar, not only because their beers are not often seen in a cask conditioned format but they are generally doing something a bit interesting, different and extreme, often at a host brewer that can be quite traditional and conservative!
