Why is Greene King giving away free pints?

The giveaway comes as part of a celebration of rain falling in Manchester today after research found more than 20 per cent of people claimed it was the wettest UK city. 

The team at the Great Northern Warehouse on Manchester’s Deansgate set up a rain collection hub. At 8am today, the pub company’s biggest ever round started after the rain drop collected was set off, meaning pub goers across the nation can enjoy a free drink.

Clair Preston-Beer, managing director for Greene King Pubs, said: “Now it’s officially raining, we’re pouring 100,000 free pints across our Greene King pubs nationwide in our biggest ever giveaway to celebrate rather than commiserate the rain, because let’s face it, it won’t be the last of the wet weather.

“At Greene King, we are proud of being the nation’s go-to place to eat, drink, and relax with your family, friends, and colleagues. 

“We have something for everyone, so as we can’t control the weather, we can make up for it by offering this free pint giveaway up and down the country - meaning a good time is (almost) guaranteed. We can’t wait to welcome customers into our pubs today to enjoy our biggest ever round of free drinks.”
