Plum is made with Laredo plums from Palisade at 2.4 pounds per gallon. It tastes like strawberry icy pops, like candy. Very unique flavor that we loved so much and made a big blend.

10/9/15 Laredo Plum bottling and it is superlative. Days of lacing, creamy body with the acidity and minerality in check - got that flintstones vitamin water profile. Mid palate has some jolly rancher but never cloying as a hit of funk comes in to fight the pucker.

Nose: Sweet plum flesh. Warheads. (Straw) berry seeds. Wet hay. Sour yoghurt. Grainy cereal. Faint malt grist.
⠀
Taste: Sweet plums. Sour berries. Yoghurt-like lacto. Light wet oak.
Feel: Medium-light bodied. Crisp. Refreshing-ish. Prickly carbonation.
Overall: Pretty sure Casey just took a couple hundred gallons of Plum purée and pitched some sort of super-fermenting yeast, diluted it with water, and then let the resulting solution bottle condition with some sort of super brett. Not quite sure where the beer starts and where the juice ends, but save for a little cereal-like malt grist flavor and funk toward the end, I can't believe this isn't some sort of plum juice... wine, whatever, sans the steeping fruit in high ABV alcohol.
