Description
We are Pomona Island. We have a passion for innovation and style. We wake up each morning and strive each day to create te finest beers on the... Nah, can you imagine if we actually spoke like that? We're just beer snobs and over-appreciators who thought we would put our (small amount of) money where our (big) mouths are.

The Brewery is Nick and Ryan, who started the Gas Lamp bar in Manchester CIty Centre (where you can always find our beers!), Gaz from Marble Brewery and James from Tempest Brewery.

The beer is all stuff we like to drink. Loads of sessionable new world hoppy pales, more traditional stouts and porters. Big Juicy IPAs, and some fun experimental stuff to keep us and you interested.

Cam from Free Beer. Almost clear golden. Crisp malts, bread crust, lime leaves, zesty hops. There's also something creamy or even yoghurt-like. A bit of peach, orange, lavender. Just medium serrt and bitter. Crisp and oily body.

On this drinking day in 1819 the Peterloo Massacre took place less than half a mile from where I'm sat now, they weren't looking for eden, just a few more rights. Malty but quite hoppy too, with an acidic citrus quality desperate to surpass a more dominant breadiness. Strange but alluring.

This beer could be religious if you were a follower of the Welsh holy man Saint Armel, as it's his feast day today. Juice appearance, citrus dominant tropical fruitiness, acid activity and a smoothish texture.

There's no chance of Rover moving over just yet after increasing sales by a quarter in the last year. Hazy pale gold with tropical and pine notes combined in a very drinkable texture. Quite citric.

Getting Stonefruit layers of nectarine and mango, some citrusy tangerine and grapefruit, touch of hop spice, semi sweet pale malty support, just a hint of mosaic induced blueberry, balanced light bitter hoppy refreshing finish. Nice one.
