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.

0.33 l bottle from 'Sterk Avondverkoop', best before October 2025. Hazy, golden with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, quite spicy, gently fruity-floral and moderately yeasty aroma of lots of coriander, orange peel, vanilla and banana. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, quite spicy, gently yeasty and moderately fruity-floral taste of banana, vanilla, coriander, orange peel and traces of clove, followed by a short, moderately bitter finish. Medium to full body, very smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Pleasant Witbier with a pleasant mouthfeel but also a tad too much coriander. The same result could have been achieved with less alcohol though.
