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.

Tap at Prague Beer Fest 2026. Hazy yellow body, off-white head. Resinous and herbal hoppy notes mixing with citrusy notes - yuzu comes closest. Look at me using fancy citrus fruit as descriptors, ha! Smooth taste, resin, light onion, yuzu notes, floral touches, ending in a nice bitter finish. One of the hoppy highlights of the day! Pomona Island clearly came to impress - and other than the two lads being legents, the beer was excellent across the board!

Tap at Prague Beer Fest 2026. Hazy yellow-golden body, off-white head. Citrusy aroma, for sure, with a ton of resin to back it up. More resin, dank notes in the taste, some underlying yellow fruit, sweetish, ending bitter. Bit too sweet for my tastes, but lovely in some ways!

Panda thanks to Cloin. Hazy gold beer, a few small pale cream colour bubbles never form a real head. Airy palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Soft pale malts, sweet enough. Fair bit of Mosaic candy fruits here but, they are matched by some ripe orange and tropical fruits. Soft cooling pine and a mild bitterness on the light finish. Not bad.

Tap at Prague Beer Fest 2026. Murky yellow body, white head. Oniony, citric and overwhelmingly herbal hoppy aroma. Much better taste, citrusy and juicy, smooth, with some onion and low bitterness. Another good 'un from Pomona, not their best maybe.

Tap at Prague Beer Fest 2026. Murky darker yellow body, off-white head. Resinous and citric aroma mostly, some esters perhaps, light oatiness. NIce juicy taste, resin again, citrusy notes, light orange, bit tropical. Nice one by all means, the hop profile is clear and enjoyable.
