If you can’t resist trying new real ale flavours, you’re in luck as Wetherpoon has announced its spring beer festival.
Pubgoers will be able to get their hands on a pint for as little as £1.99 in some of the chain's locations.
During the 12-day beer festival, a range of 30 real ales, including five from overseas brewers in Belgium, Germany, Italy, Taiwan and the USA will be available.
As well as featuring a selection of malt and hop varieties from around the world, there are also beers which, among their ingredients, include chocolate and vanilla pods.
Among the festival's collection are vegan beers, which are suitable for vegetarians.
When is the Wetherspoon spring beer festival?
The beer festival will run from Wednesday, March 6 to Sunday, March 17, inclusive.
Three third-of-a-pint tasters will also be available for the price of a pint.
Prices will start from £1.99 at around 50 pubs, while the majority of Wetherspoon locations will see prices start from £2.49, reports The Mirror.

Marketing manager Jen Swindells said: “The festival is a great celebration of real ale.
“It will allow us, during a 12-day period, to showcase a selection of value-for-money beers, including those from overseas.
“It will also give our customers the opportunity to enjoy several beers which have not previously been available in the pubs, as well as those brewed especially for the festival.”
Tasting notes on all of the beers will be available in pubs as part of the festival magazine (a digital version will be available on the Wetherspoon app and website).
