So I picked some nice little plums last weekend from Grandma's garden and was thinking of doing a simple/ spontaneously fermented beer with them. My plan is to just make a simple low gravity wort, chill it to pitching temp and just rack the wort on to the plums and let the wild yeast on them do the work.

Has anyone done anything like this?
Am I crazy?
Think it'll work?

Regardless, I need to use these plums by this weekend before they rot. Otherwise I have to preserve the plums somehow for later use but wanted to try to utilize the wild yeast that exists on them. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, cheers!
