 After years covering beverages as a journalist, in 2021, Pomranz dipped his toe in the bar scene, opening [https://www.istheciderholeopen.com The Cider Hole] -- a "cider-centric" bar in Sheffield, England, selling a personally curated selection of ciders, beers, wines, and other beverages. The bar received critical and popular acclaim -- including being named CAMRA's Cider Pub of the Year for Sheffield -- but shuttered in 2023 so Pomranz could move on to bigger projects.
 In 2023, Pomranz conceived [https://www.theoldshoebar.com The Old Shoe] -- "A modern bar in the centre of Sheffield
 serving carefully-curated wine, cider, and beer from the best independent producers — alongside handcrafted non-alcoholic drinks,
 locally-roasted coffee, and so much more" -- in Orchard Square in Sheffield's City Centre, opening as part of an ownership duo. Again, this project received universal acclaim -- including recongintion as Sheffield's Best New Bar and Best Bar in its first two years of operation along with numerous recongitions from CAMRA.

 DJ Mike Pomranz has distinguished himself from other disc jockeys not by focusing on a specific style, but by the vastness of his digital music collection and his uncanny ability to find common threads throughout decades, genres, lyrics, songs, sounds, and grooves.
