Gold, white head.Nose of fruit and diacetyl. Muddled palate of lemon,wheat and hops with diacetyl notes. If I was Persephone, I’d be afraid to admit to this mess

Hazy gold with a thin head. Smells like diacetyl, random graininess and cranberry juice. So, it smells terrible. Persephone made this? Really? Tastes the same - a mess of a beer with elements that do not come together, all slathered in a noxious diacetyl sauce. Drain pour.

650 ml bottle. Pours a clear amber with light head. Aromas fo dull wheat, corn, and mild sweet citrus. Flavors follow same with notes of dry honey and toasted malts. Not very inspiring for Persephone...

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Blond color, clean, with medium head. Smells like light cereals and wet paper, a bit flowery. Smooth, not too dry, with very timid malt flavor, some herbaceous/grassy touch and not much more; light acidity in the final, low bitterness.
Clean, but unemotional, rather boring and even cloying.

On tap at 12 Kings, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of dry crackery malt and soft pillowy wheat. Flavour brings out lots of soft wheat upfront, with subtle cranberries, some sweetness from the honey, but I don't detect the Yerba. Weird thing to brew and for what it is, it turned out alright.
