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. Hazy gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Airy palate, a little soft, reasonable fine carbonation. Fluffy malts provide an equally fluffy and modest creamy sweetness. My smoke detector is going off, something lurking in the background. Light soft pine. Rich but soft citrus, nice orange and tangerine vibe. Modest tropical fruits and a trace of hop spice. Airy finish. First impressions - a somewhat clunky dipa, but settle down and be patient and the rewards come. The smoky note, recedes, thankfully. Decent.

Keg @ Old Gate, Hebden Bridge. Hazy light amber with a thin head. It has dry malty-hoppy notes, with the latter certainly more dominant. Has a low strength fruitiness that’s best in its nose.
