First blended in 2016, Moonwalk has become one of, not to say, the cornerstone of the Bofkont story. The apricots are sourced directly from the Ardèche region in France and consist predominantly of Bergeron apricots, prized for their intense aroma and rich, velvety character
Each year, we carefully select the barrels that will shape the blend. A soft lambic, bringing a gentle lactic touch, has become a defining element of Moonwalk over the years. Our goal remains the same with every vintage: to showcase the beer's fruity and creamy character, supported by the refreshing acidity of the lambic without allowing it to dominate the blend.
The result is a balanced and elegant expression of apricot, where bright fruit notes, subtle creaminess, and a refined acidity come together in harmony.

Bottle sample @ Billies 2021, shared with Brewver BE crew.
Dorée présentant un léger trouble, pas de col.
Arôme offre un bouquet plaisant d'abricot fermenté frais avec ce côté organique - fleuri, rétro funk des lambics.
Palais est marqué par l'abricot - certaine onctuosité avec un côté purée, fruits secs qui se prête bien aux notes des lambics dont se dégagent de petites notes citriques avec un léger effet mandarine/pamplemousse - peut-être relevé par l'acidité/citrique des assemblages avec les lambics qui donne ce côté agrumes avec l'abricot.
Une des nombreuses versions usant des abricots - une bonne saison pour ce fruits.
