Pub manager Phil King said: “The festival is a great celebration of cask ale.
“It will allow us to showcase a selection of superb beers, featuring many not previously available to our customers in the pub, including those from brewers as far afield as China and Ukraine, as well as those closer to home, over a 12 day period.
“All of the beers will be available at great value-for-money prices.”
Three third-of-a-pint tasters will also be available for the price of a pint.
Tasting notes on all of the beers will be available in the pub as part of the festival magazine. A digital version will also be available on the Wetherspoon app and website.
All ales will be available to order at the bar or via the Wetherspoon app.
