The pub on East Street will host the festival from Wednesday, March to Sunday, March 15.
Almost all of the beers on offer have been brewed for the first time, exclusively for the festival. The overseas brewers are from Brazil, Italy, Mexico, Spain and USA.
It is the first time the Wetherspoon pub has served a real ale from Mexico.
As well as featuring a range of different malt and hop varieties from around the world, some beers include coffee, elderflower, hibiscus, maple syrup, orange and vanilla.
The drinks will cost £2.99 a pint.
The festival line-up includes Lucky ‘Lips (Shepherd Neame), Pitch Perfect (Vale), Crimson Legend (Brains), Salem Coastal Confusion (Batemans), Shug Monkey (Elgood’s), and Brewed Awakening (Hook Norton).
Pub manager Mark Bouchier said: “The festival is a great celebration of real 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 Mexico and Brazil, 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."
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.
