Wetherspoons cranks up the Spanish Armada!




The beloved pub chain Wetherspoons has reached a swashbuckling decision: to strike San Miguel from its beer list!

After years of loyal service, the Spanish pale lager will bid farewell from all Wetherspoons pubs by the end of November. It's like Spain has fired the first shot of the Spanish Armada against the British pub scene.


A moment of silence for the fallen lager...

We mourn the loss of San Miguel, a beer that has graced our humble drinking halls for ages. Its crisp, refreshing taste has quenched the thirst of countless Spoons-goers, creating a camaraderie that will be hard to replace.

But fear not, loyal patrons! Wetherspoons has a cunning plan up its sleeve. In place of the fallen Spanish hero, they're bringing in Poretti, a premium Italian lager. It may not have the same sun-soaked charm, but it vows to conquer our taste buds with its smooth, golden flavor.

So, what's the verdict?

Well, it's like choosing between a Spanish fiesta and an Italian gondola ride. Both offer their own unique charm, and it's up to each individual to decide which way their compass points.

  • For the loyalists: Brace yourselves for a bittersweet farewell. Grab a pint of San Miguel while you still can, and raise a toast to the fallen comrade.
  • For the explorers: Cast off the ropes of tradition and embrace the unknown. Venture into the uncharted territory of Poretti and let the sun-drenched flavors take over.

Whatever your choice, one thing's for sure: the battle for supremacy in the world of pub beers has just taken a dramatic turn. Let's raise our glasses to the new chapter, and may the best lager win!
