Tallgrass from Manhattan Kansas has consistently produced some fine beers, usually encased in the ground-breaking (for craft beers) 16 oz. cans. Wild Plum is a farmhouse, or saison, similar in style to a Belgian wit. It pours an apricot hued gold, with a six finger snowy-white head. The plum barely shows up - I wouldn't even know it as there if it didn't say so on the label. The style is closer to a Belgian sour ale than a typical farmhouse, so if you don't like the sours, stay away! I'm a big fan of them, for example some of Goose Island's beers, and would definitely sample Wild Plum again.
