PomBomb.com – Barrel-Aged Pomegranate Tart Saison in San Diego
Aged in Mead & Gin Barrels | Now Pouring at California Wild Ales – Ocean Beach (92107) & Point Loma
San Diego may be known for its West Coast IPAs, but farmhouse ales and barrel-aged saisons are where true depth lives.
Introducing PomBomb.com, a 6% ABV barrel-aged pomegranate tart saison brewed and aged right here in San Diego, California at California Wild Ales, with tasting rooms in Ocean Beach (92107) and Point Loma / Midway District.
Bright. Layered. Complex.
And yes — it’s still the bomb dot com.
A Barrel Program Built for Complexity
PomBomb.com begins as a classic Belgian-inspired farmhouse ale fermented with expressive saison yeast. After primary fermentation, the beer is transferred into a blend of specialty barrels:
-
Oak barrels previously used for mead from Lost Cause Meadery (San Diego)
-
Gin barrels from Cutwater Spirits (San Diego)
This unique combination creates layers of character you simply can’t achieve in stainless steel.
What the Barrels Contribute:
• Subtle honeyed depth from the mead barrels
• Light botanical notes from the gin barrels
• Gentle oak tannin and structure
• Soft natural oxidation
• A more integrated fruit expression
The result is a pomegranate tart saison with refinement and dimension — vibrant fruit up front, balanced acidity through the mid-palate, and a dry, structured finish.

Why Barrel Aging Matters
Barrel aging transforms a beer from bright and simple into layered and expressive.
The mead barrel influence adds roundness and faint honey character that enhances the fruit. The gin barrels contribute delicate botanical notes — subtle herbal complexity that plays beautifully with saison spice and tart pomegranate acidity.
It’s not sweet. It’s not spirit-forward. It’s balanced.
This approach bridges the gap between craft beer, wine, and spirits — making PomBomb.com a standout in the San Diego craft beer scene.
Perfect Pairings in Ocean Beach
PomBomb.com pairs beautifully with:
• Charcuterie and aged cheeses
• Mediterranean dishes
• Grilled lamb
• Spicy seafood tacos
• Fresh salads with citrus vinaigrette
• Sunset views at the Ocean Beach Pier
At 6% ABV, it’s approachable enough for a casual afternoon in OB but complex enough for thoughtful sipping.
