Lum, also known as lum ale, was a foaming, intoxicating alcoholic liquor, and was considered a strong ale. It was popular in the Corellian sector, where it was the primary ingredient in drinking competitions termed "lumguzzling." While an individual felt the common effects of alcohol when drinking lum, it was impossible to overdose on it. Jacob Nive enjoyed drinking it, as did Thwim. When drunk in smaller quantities, the drink was said to taste sweeter and also slightly soapy, though not to an unpleasant degree. Lum was a popular drink in the Tailfin Cantina of Lamaredd as of 29 BBY.
