Oh, I almost forgot this little gem! A few years ago, a friend gave us a whole bunch of plums from his trees for wine. They were not the big purple plums you see in the store, but instead brown/purple skinned plums with brown flesh.
I made them into wine, and after racking into secondary I missed a ton of pulp or sediment or something. The wine was light brown, with big floaties of dark brown. I mean, BIG floaties, like turd sized.
It looked like a toilet bowl at a bad frat party. I couldn't bear to look at it, and covered it with a blanket and called in my "poop wine". It was that bad!
Anyway, the wine eventually turned out to be a light pink color, with hints of red in it, and tasted great with fruity notes of raisin. I didn't tell people that it was "formerly known as poop beer", and it was all good.
My tomato wine, made with red tomatoes, is golden colored when done.
Weird, off topic, but true stories.
