Modern Times Lomaland Fermentorium is a brewery and taproom at 3725 Greenwood St in Point Loma, San Diego, California. The Lomaland site is part of the Modern Times brewery, known across San Diego for coffee-influenced beers, hazy and hoppy styles, and a distinctly modern, plant-forward approach to food. The taproom is set in an industrial-style space with a large patio, a feature that makes it popular on sunny San Diego afternoons. The crowd is a relaxed mix of Point Loma and Ocean Beach locals, beer enthusiasts, groups of friends and families, and visitors venturing beyond downtown. The dress code is casual, with shorts and sandals common.

The drinks programme highlights the brewery's own range, including coffee beers and other specialty releases, with flights available for sampling and a rotating draft list. Non-alcoholic options and some wine or cider may be offered. The food menu is vegan, a distinguishing feature of the Modern Times model, and suits both beer pairing and a casual meal. Prices are mid-range, with pints commonly around seven to ten US dollars depending on strength and style.

Music is background level, and the atmosphere is communal, with picnic-style seating and a lively patio. The taproom is open daily from the afternoon to late evening, with weekends the busiest period. No cover is charged, reservations are generally not required except for large groups or events, and bottle service does not apply. The location in Point Loma, west of downtown and near the Midway District, means a short rideshare is the usual way to arrive, and the area works well when combined with a visit to nearby sights such as the waterfront or Ocean Beach. Visitors who care about local craft beer often include the Fermentorium on a tasting route across San Diego's breweries.
