Voor de vierde en laatste Bandwagon van 2025 hebben onze Beer Mechanics weer alles uit de kast gehaald om op pole position te staan voor de laatste Hoppy Grand Prix van het seizoen. 435 klokt in op een stevige 9.0% alcohol, en is er daarom eentje om eens goed voor te gaan zitten. De opvallende parelmoerlak, de dik getunede hopcombo, en een mondgevoel dat past als een handgemaakte racestoel: Alles klopt. Time to hop on the Bandwagon!

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is gruity hop aroma with citrus, orange, tropical fruit, mango, stone fruit. Moderate bitter and lightly sweet. Well-rounded Bandwagon, one of the best.

On tap at Walhalla brewpub, Amsterdam, Saturday 10th January 2026, after a treacherous walk from the Buiksloterweg boat mooring and then Lowlander and then Oedipus. Hazy mid yellow with a white head there's a little citrus on the nose, similar with taste but with a little resinous touch. Soft mouthfeel, there is a nice light boozy hit. Very nice. Score 7.6
