Titanic II to serve same beer, champagne as its predecessor

A Welsh beer served on the Titanic in 1912 may also be provided to passengers aboard the 300 million pounds replica of the doomed liner, due to be launched in two years time.
The new Titanic II, being built by Australian company Blue Star Line, will be an exact copy of the original ship which sank in the Atlantic on April 15, 1912.
It will also serve the same Champagne, brandy and lager that were loaded onto the Titanic, it has emerged.
Makers of Wrexham Lager, the beer that was loaded onto the original Titanic, have unveiled plans to quench the thirst of passengers on Titanic II as well, 'walesonline.Co.Uk' reported.

The brewery shut in 2000, but was re-opened in 2011.
"We've been in touch with the owners and they've been positive," said Wrexham director Mark Roberts.

"They have signed up the original brandy and champagne houses and we thought it was only right they should have the original lager suppliers too," Roberts said.
"I have been able to have some of the beers put on ice and managed to sample a couple. We all agree they are fantastic," said James McDonald, of Blue Star Line.
"We could discuss more about Titanic 2 licensing and availability to be the official beer of the Titanic 2," McDonald said in an email to Wrexham Lager.

Titanic II, which aims to make its maiden voyage in 2016, will have the same dimensions as its predecessor, with 840 rooms and nine decks.
Clive Palmer, the Australian billionaire behind the Titanic replica, had also announced in January this year that passengers travelling 'third class' will be 'de-loused' on arrival and will be provided with spartan rooms in keeping with the original experience.
