‘Here we go’ scream Wetherspoons punters as pub giant reveals exact date cheap pints will return

WETHERSPOONS fans will be saying “cheers” as the chain has revealed the exact date cheap pints will return to venues.

The pub giant is putting together plans for its 12-day autumn real ale festival and punters are delighted.

It will begin on Wednesday, October 9 and end on Sunday, October 20 across the chain’s 814 branches.

As part of the festival, Wetherspoons puts on a selection of real ales from a variety of brewers for punters to try at low prices.

The exact beers and the prices at this year’s event are yet to be confirmed, but last year, pints were available for just £2.

At the last festival, fans had the opportunity to sample beers from Belgium, Germany, Italy, Taiwan and the USA.

It’s important to bear in mind though that prices do vary from pub to pub.

It’s a good idea to double check the price of a pint before you order so you aren’t caught out if it’s a little more than you expected.

Wetherspoons runs two real ale festivals every year – one in the spring and another in autumn.

Fans have taken to social media to share their excitement at the festival’s return.

One Facebook user said: “Here we go again!”

Another added: “Bingo! Look forward to doing it all again”

And a third cried: “I’m ready for some real ale.”

You can find your local Wetherspoons on the pub chain’s website.

All the ales are usually available to order at the bar, or via the Wetherspoons app.

Beer connoisseurs can see tasting notes on all the beers as part of the festival programme, which will be free to pick up from pubs.

A digital version is also made available on the free Wetherspoons app and on its website.

Ways to save at Wetherspoons

Every year, Spoons holds its Tax Equality Day to highlight the benefits of a permanently reduced tax bill for the pub industry.

It usually takes place in September, and last year it fell on Thursday, September 14.

As well as its Spring festival, Wetherspoons also holds a 12-day Real Ale Festival every Autumn.

Wetherspoons is known for its meal deal offers that run all week long.

These include Tuesday’s Steak Club, the Thursday Curry Club and Fish Friday.

For example, a standard curry club meal with an alcoholic drink is between £8.55 and £9.19.

Outside of the deal, you would expect to pay around a fiver more for the same meal.

You can enjoy bottomless brews all day in participating Wetherspoons pubs by buying one hot drink.

The offer includes Tetley tea and a range of Lavazza coffee including a flat white, latte, cappuccino, and Americano.

Prices start from just 99p but they can vary depending on your location.

We have put together a full list of participating Wetherspoons so you can check if your local offers the deal.
