Wetherspoons has introduced a new Guinness-style beer across its UK pubs, priced around £2.99, according to reports. The new drink is presented as a lower-cost alternative to Guinness, which is widely available and a popular choice at the pub chain. The outlets describe it as a “dupe,” indicating it is marketed as similar in concept to Guinness while costing less on average. Reports do not provide extensive details in the available excerpts about the beer’s specific name, brewing method, alcohol content, or how it is positioned on menus beyond the price point. The introduction is part of Wetherspoons’ broader pricing approach, which often emphasizes lower-cost drinks compared with many competitors. Overall, sources agree that Wetherspoons has rolled out the beer nationwide (or across its pubs) with an average price of £2.99 and that it is intended as a more budget-friendly option for customers who would otherwise order Guinness.
