Wetherspoon Beer Festival: 30 Unique Ales from Around the World Starting October 1.

According to The Sun: Hello beer lovers! The Wetherspoon Beer Festival is opening its doors soon, and this event is definitely not to be missed.

Wetherspoon always delights its visitors with attractive prices and a huge selection. This year, the festival, inspired by the German Oktoberfest, raises the bar even higher.

Beer Festival

The long-awaited festival from Wetherspoon returns with 30 authentic ales, including five varieties from international brewers. This will be available during the 12-day festival this fall.

The festival offers an array of malt and hop varieties from around the world, including beers with cucumbers, lime, vanilla, blueberries, and spices.

Among the offerings are also vegan options suitable for vegetarians.

Marketing manager Jen Swindells said: 'The festival is a wonderful celebration of true ale. It will allow us to showcase a selection of beers at attractive prices over 12 days, including varieties from brewers from countries like India and Australia, as well as from Ukrainian regions.'

'It's also an opportunity for visitors to taste beers that were previously unavailable in pubs, as well as those specifically brewed for the festival.'

Dates

The festival kicks off in honor of the German Oktoberfest and will run from September 20 to October 5. Wetherspoon's celebration of beer will begin on Wednesday, October 1, and last until Sunday, October 12.

This will be nearly two weeks of enjoyment featuring cheap and internationally recognized beer varieties.

Beer

Among the 26 beer varieties that will be presented, hop lovers from around the world can enjoy different flavors. Whether it's Creature Comforts Automatic from Georgia, USA, or Young Henrys Newtowner from Sydney, Australia – Wetherspoon has prepared an enticing assortment this year.

Everyone will find something to their taste, with prices starting at £2.15, so it’s definitely worth a try. Each beer will have a symbol indicating to which category it belongs: whether it’s specially brewed for the festival, or a new ale brewed only since 2025, or beer with unusual ingredients.

For example, <FA> indicates that the beer is making its debut at the festival, while <IB> means it’s from an international brewer.
