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.

Can shared in Canary Wharf, London - cheers to Kenny. Pours murky gold with a frothy, white head. Not great, really chalky, almost ashy, with notes of lemon peel, alcohol. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Warming finish, chalky, boozy, smokey, vaguely citrusy. Not great.

Can picked up from Beer Gonzo Webshop, Earlsdon, Coventry and consumed in Frank, Lenggries Mountain Camping, Southern Bavaria Wednesday 25th December 2019 (Christmas Day!) whilst listening to Protomartyr - Relatives in Descent and cooking Turkey, Brie and Cranberry Wellington with Roasted Vegetables. Pours hazy yellowy colour with a white head a little bit sweet at first but I had a sip after a blueberry sour. It's very hoppy of that there is no denying, otherwise ok. Loz thinks it is a bit piney.

Can split at L6 Xmas Karnage tasting, thanks to Kenny, 19/12/19. Murky orange with a decent off white cap. Nose is ripe citric flesh, weed, pine resin, melon. Taste comprises raw pineapple, grass, grapefruits, orange pith, light minerality, weed. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with semi aggressive hop bitterness. Ok DIPA if a touch on the raw side.

Can from Beer Gonzo Webshop, Earlsdon, Coventry and consumed at home Attenkirchen, Saturday 21st December 2019, cooking Cannelloni and listening to The Twilight Sad - It Won't be Like This All The Time. Pours murky yellow with a white head, hoppiness shows but it takes it's time, unfortunately biscuit flavours dominant, which I don't want in a DDH APA. Dry finish, okay it's getting better, tastes better for leaving it for a few minutes in the glass.
