Titanic Brewey - Cherry Porter Grand Reserve

Some beers are worth waiting for, and Titanic Brewery's Cherry Porter Grand Reserve is a magnificent example of what a little extra time and patience can achieve! Inspired by the brewery's much-loved Cherry Porter, this luxurious 6.5% special edition takes everything that makes the original so irresistible and turns up the intensity. Darker, stronger and wonderfully indulgent, Grand Reserve undergoes an extended 21-day maturation in conditioning tanks, allowing its rich malt character and luscious cherry flavours to develop greater depth and complexity. The result is a beautifully rounded, full-flavoured porter that's practically made for those long winter evenings beside the fire.

Pouring a magnificent deep ruby-red colour, Cherry Porter Grand Reserve delivers an enticing combination of ripe cherries, rich roasted malt and inviting dark fruit aromas. Its wonderfully expressive cherry character brings a generous helping of sweet, succulent fruit, beautifully complemented by the deeper, more mature flavours developed during its extended conditioning. On the palate, expect luscious cherry sweetness alongside notes of dark chocolate, toasted malt and gentle caramel, creating a beautifully layered drinking experience. A restrained hop character provides balance, allowing the interplay between fruit and malt to take centre stage without becoming excessively sweet.

Rich, smooth and wonderfully satisfying, Cherry Porter Grand Reserve offers a more sophisticated interpretation of Titanic's celebrated original. Its additional strength brings a gentle warming quality, while the extended maturation creates a beautifully integrated flavour profile with greater depth and richness. The finish is lingering and deliciously fruity, with impressions of ripe cherries, roasted malt and delicate chocolate sweetness. An exceptional choice for lovers of traditional British porters, indulgent fruit beers and luxurious winter warmers. Pour yourself a glass, find a comfortable chair and savour every sip – this is a beer that deserves to be enjoyed slowly!
