Sampan
Asian Style Imperial Pilsner
experiMENTAL SeriesThis round of RUMTUM label art had us dreaming of the brightly colored sampan boats floating in the Pacific harbors of the Far East, and our palates yearning for a rice lager. So we started with an Asian-style Pilsner recipe made with jasmine rice, then added our Melvin brew Kung-Fu, amping it up to 8% ABV and fermenting it with sake yeast. The result is a crisp and bright beer with a fluffy mouthfeel and pleasant minerality that leaves it dangerously drinkable. You'll be anxious to pull up anchor and sail these seas.

Melvin Brewing had always been innovative, but the restraints of a rapidly growing production system had us feeling somewhat stagnant in an ever-changing craft beer landscape. It was time to go back to the future. We revved up the flux capacitor and started getting weird. Different flavors, techniques and styles will be featured, but you can always expect cutting-edge beers with the Melvin quality you know and love. Get ExperiMENTAL.
