Pomona Island // The Naming Game

9/14/2021

sHOP POMONA
Pomona Island, an award winning craft brewery based in Salford, have entertained us with some of the best and most appropriate beer names we've seen to date. Bringing back that warm nostalgic feeling with each reference they come out with, whether it's an old quote from a movie or an album/song title long forgotten.
Picture
There Wolf is a well hopped DIPA, Loaded with Cryo Citra, Vic Secret, Zappa, & Enigma hops.

"Werewolf? There. What? There wolf, There castle."

The name comes from a line (part of a skit) in the 1974 film, Young Frankenstein. Directed by Mel Brooks, this film tells the story of an American grandson of the infamous scientist, struggling to prove that his grandfather was not as insane as people believe. 

Eat The Rude is an IPA hopped with Cryo Mosaic, Azacca and Idaho 7. 

​It would almost be criminal to not name one of their beers after a Hannibal Lecter quote. After all the famous fictional cannibal has had 5 movies and an entire series based on his life and dietary preferences.

​"Whenever feasible, One should always try to eat the rude."
​

Mads Mikkelsen delivers this line elegantly terryfying.

Boppers, Stay Tuned. The latest double dry hopped pale news off the street Boppers. Hopped with Citra Cryo, Sabro and Mosaic, brewed at a crushable 4.7% Abv.
​
"Stay tuned boppers, Stay tuned."

Another fantastic reference to a modern classic film, The Warriors. This 1979 film, directed by Walter Hill, tells the story of a charismatic leader who summons the street gangs of New York City in a bid to take it over. When he is killed, The Warriors are  blamed and now must fight their way home while every other gang is hunting them down.

Brasserie-Ammonite // Sennecey-le-Grand // France

After studying viticulture and oenology in Beaune, Simon LECOMTE sets out on a journey to meet avant-garde winegrowers. He feeds on their words and practices and returns to Burgundy to set up a brewery there with the aim of transposing oenology and winemaking processes to the production of his beers. He begins by filling around thirty barrels which he stores with fellow winegrowers. In 2018, he set up the brewery in Sens, a small hamlet of Sennecey-Le-Grand, following the discovery of an old virgin 17th century barn. After several months of refurbishment, he installed his tanks and continued the work initiated a few years earlier. It was not until spring 2019 before the first beers were released from their barrels.

All the operations carried out at the brewery are controlled by the lunar and maritime calendar. Both high and low tides have a microbiological influence during brewing, fermentation and aging of beers. They act, with the moon, like a breath and each of the phases of the calendar corresponds to a particular intervention. This movement of breathing on the astral scale has a concrete impact on the development and quality of the beers produced.
Drawn 24 hours before being used in the production of beer, the water is energized in one of the brewing tanks in order to "bring" it back to life and allow it to dissolve the starch as well as possible and promote leaching. activity of enzymes during the brewing phase.​

The Moon is a Hollow Spacecraft

Several science fiction books of the early 20th century, including H.G. Wells’ The First Men in the Moon, take place within a hollow moon inhabited by aliens. In 1970 two Soviet scientists took this seemingly whimsical premise a step further, proposing that the moon is actually a shell-like alien spacecraft built by extraterrestrials with superior technology and intelligence. 

According to astronomers, the moon—though admittedly enigmatic as far as celestial bodies go—couldn’t maintain its mass and gravitational field if it lacked a dense core.
