King Tide Saison Released by Brewers Guild, Driftwood & Persephone

Driftwood and Persephone King Tide SaisonLaunching Monday Sept. 26: The BC Craft Brewers Guild in conjunction with Persephone Brewing and Driftwood Brewery present the fifth Guild-branded collaborative brew: King Tide Saison.

About King Tide Saison

The Earth, Sun and Moon have aligned to deliver this delicious collaboration! Persephone and Driftwood have joined forces to create this strong, effervescent Saison. Notes of tropical fruit abound from the warm fermentation required by the use of the famous Brasserie Dupont yeast. King Tide Saison will be available at select private liquor stores across the province as of September 26.
