Pomona is available in Brewery packs (500g) currently and the Sachet (11g) version will be available during this summer.Also the audio is abit lower in this video than usual, sorry about that but turning it up works :)

This yeast for sure sounds amazing! Many thanks David for the early details on it.

I'm not surprised Lallemand have developed another NEIPA yeast, especially with WHC developing some very interesting looking-competition

Great video David, really looking forward to this one coming out, if it's anything as amazing as Nova Lager, it's going to be a hit for IPA's and hop forward beers. P.s noticed the audio was a little soft.

Great to hear, thank you. Im not sure on the audio, it had the same treatment at my end as always, kind of odd.

Sounds like a great choice for a hazy ipa. Thanks for reviewing

Not that I know of but keep in mind that they have been developed further, so the best way to judge this yeast is from its profile descriptors included with this video, as well as the comparisons with other yeast.

Hi, yes I know, sorry about that but turning the volume up should work and make it ok 🍻🍻

I'm curious to see how this yeast compares to the huge Verdant krausen which has proved challenging in fermenters with limited head space.

@DavidHeathHomebrew

So far ive not noticed anything excessive personally.

I saw on Lallemand's Instagram post that homebrew sized packs might take another month or two. Bummer. It sounds like an interesting yeast to try.

@DavidHeathHomebrew

Yes, they are trying to speed it up.

Wonder if they could make a yeast that lowers ph to prevent tannins from hops without the need for acid. Maybe after the WP hops the damage is already done though? Or maybe a yeast that can remove hop/grain tannins that would help Scottish breweries that can’t seem to make a pale without tannins

Any idea if NEIPAs will be less susceptible to oxygenation during transfer/bottling?

I have no details on that, so I suspect not. However it is a case of not splashing. Start the flow slowly, it works for me 🍻🍻🍻

I working on modifying a recipe that uses 2 wyeast 1318 london ale smackpacks in a 23L batch, but want to try Pomona as soon as the small packs become available. Any recommendations on how many I should probably use? OG should be around 1.070. I find it difficult to reverse engineer the wyeast pitch rates to alternative yeasts like pomona or verdant ipa yeast.

​@DavidHeathHomebrew just one last question. The original recipe I am basing mine on with the Wyeast recommends a 14 day fermentation with dry hops added on day 7. Following your information in the video, showing an average of 9 days including dry hops. What would you recommend to aim at for total fermentation and moment of dry gopping? I'm using Citra and Mosaic cryo hops for the dry hopping.

Is this an LAIII variant similar to Verdant, but with more biotransformation properties? Attenuation looks to be similar to verdant.

Hi Mike, This video is not as boosted audio wise as my usual content. However this will only be an issue on devices that are not able to boost themselves, so it will only affect some devices. So I suggest trying it wilth your phone or tablet instead. Sorry about that.

What are your thoughts on replacing Verdant with Pomona in your NEIPA Second Generation?

@DavidHeathHomebrew

Yes, it will be more tropical but thats not a bad thing. I have a new NEIPA recipe being shared next week too 🍻🍻😎

It's gonna take a lot of boot Lallemand's Voss yeast from my award winning NEIPA recipe. Lal's New England wasn't up to the task. But I look forward to giving Pomona a shot!
