Sanctum Brewing Co.

 

 

Sanctum Brewing is located in an industrial area in Pomona. The space is shared with other businesses and located in the back corner. Once you enter, you have the tap area where you order and purchase your beers. In the back a bit you can see their production area.

I had a flight of 5 tasters. The beers were okay. The service was nice. They don't serve food, but there was a food truck when I visited.

A nice local place to drink beer and hang out in Pomona.

 

 

 

 

Nice spot, off the beaten bath but that's why they call it "Sanctum". A good selection and the beer is tasty. The only draw back are that the benches are not too sturdy. Be careful when you sit. Don't bump them, you can spill beer and that is alcohol abuse.

 

Friendly staff and comfortable atmosphere. Dog and family friendly. Outdoor patio space is a nice option to sitting indoors. Parking can be a challenge in the evening. Good selection of beers on tap. Beginning to make sours and barrel aged beers. Most Fridays you'll find a 'fun tap' small batch beer that you may or may not get to have again.

A nicely renovated warehouse is the setting for the Sanctum Brewing Company tasting room and brewing facility. The staff and owners are extremely friendly and accommodating. Considering the youth of this establishment, the variety of brews is exceptional. Most importantly, the quality of the selections is very impressive. Of the six selections available upon my visit, each was easily of above average quality. This brewery is in its infancy but, I expect big things from Sanctum Brewing.

That warehouse which Sanctum Brewing brews at is easy to locate, but not so easy to pinpoint the brewery at first impression. Sanctum is at the far eastern side of the warehouse (hint: walk past a gate and you're in). Inside, the tasting room has multiple long tables, additional seating scattered throughout, large enough to seat at least 40 people. During my Saturday afternoon visit, about half the seats were available. It has a rustic atmosphere, and such is the case at most tasting rooms, the highlight is the bar. Easy to access, clean, a beer menu that's easy to read, very friendly and serviceable staff behind the bar.

Six house beer flowed from the taps, although there are enough taps to pump 8 beers at one time. Style diversity is not an issue, as a blonde, apple blonde, mild ale, chocolate stout, IPA, and dubbel were pouring. Along with sampler flights, full pours ($5 for 16 ounces for most) are available. The dubbel and mild ale that I drink were modest beverage, with the dubbel being the more favorable option. One aspect which I like about Sanctum was to ditch the soulless shaker pints and go for tulips to hold their beer.

I liked what I tasted. Another visit in the future waits.
