To honor Amsterdam’s 750th anniversary, we’re launching a special version of our iconic IJwit: Mokum’s overdreven IJwit. Deeply in love with our city, to which we’ve been connected for over 40 years, we’ve taken Amsterdam’s favorite beer to new heights. With 7.50% alcohol and extra doses of the ingredients that make IJwit so distinctive, this beer has just a little too much of everything—and that’s exactly how we like it in Amsterdam.
An Over-the-Top Beer for the Bold Amsterdammers
Amsterdam is celebrating all year long, marking 750 years of rich history. From every corner, canal, and street, festivities are coming to life. As a resident of this city for 40 years, Brouwerij ‘t IJ couldn’t miss the chance to add our congratulations
with a new beer, of course. Mokum’s overdreven IJwit is a tribute to the Amsterdammers themselves: bold, a bit over-the-top, and always with a sense of humor. This beer is brewed with exaggerated amounts of all ingredients, resulting in a bold, full-bodied flavor with a little extra kick. All in all, it’s a dangerously delightful beer you’ll want to savor. Both the beer and the bottle are a gift to Amsterdam and its people. The bottle features illustrations capturing iconic Amsterdam symbols and clichés. We live in a fantastic city, filled with everything we love—and everything we sometimes love to complain about. And what better way to do that than with a good beer in hand? That’s what Mokum’s overdreven IJwit is perfect for.
Mokum’s overdreven IJwit is available at Albert Heijn and Gall & Gall locations across (Greater) Amsterdam, in our tasting rooms, and in the city’s best pubs. Proud of Amsterdam? Then this beer belongs in your fridge all year long.
