Pints of Carling and Coors are unavailable in some branches, with the problem due to a lack of lorry drivers.

Wetherspoon spokesman Eddie Gershon said: ‘We are experiencing some supply problems with both Carling and Coors, which means that some pubs do not have the products available.‘We know that the brewers are trying to resolve the issue.’

In addition to Brexit woes, the pandemic has caused a backlog of drivers being able to take their HGV test, and led to many people self-isolating and unable to work. Some supermarkets are calling for lorry drivers to be included on the list so that migration can help plug the gap.
