Play Luke ShepherdA fresh puzzle is waiting for you.
Higher or Lager is a British pub-themed daily game that pits two Wetherspoons pints against each other and asks you to guess whether the second costs higher or lager. Each player gets the same ten-round challenge every day. Progress, streaks and achievements are stored on your browser; no account is required.
Each round shows a benchmark pint price then reveals a challenger pint and asks you to pick HIGHER or LAGER. After each guess the actual price is revealed and your correct-round count updates. The site uses Wetherspoons menu data collected on 02 OCT 2026 and notes pint sizes are likely candidates and not independently verified.
The game displays a shared leaderboard and lets you set an optional public nickname; a pseudonymous browser identifier is used to limit repeat submissions. You can copy and share your score and achievements, and the project is an unofficial fan project not affiliated with J D Wetherspoon.

Tips for Luke Shepherd
- Use the visible benchmark price to narrow plausible price bands for the challenger rather than guessing wildly.
- Consider regional pricing patterns for Wetherspoons when you recognise the pub location; similar towns often have similar price ranges.
- Eliminate extremely unlikely values quickly: the game excludes equal-price pairs, so expect some spread between benchmark and challenger.
- Take advantage of the single daily set of ten rounds to compare patterns across rounds during the session and adjust risk on later guesses based on your running score.
