There are few things as germane to the Jersey experience as trips to Florida, when winter is getting long in its tooth. As a kid to see relatives, as a young adult to revel in the warmth with friends, and as a grown-up to get away from it all. MIA-EWR is about those wintry Florida things you drag along on the flight north at the bottom of winter- oranges so precious, sweet and warm, they are individually tissue-wrapped and carted along with those couple coconuts in giant husks found while traipsing about. Both mixed through a sprightly Highlander base to add a warm breath to the last moments before the sun comes back. Drink MIA-EWR when it’s time to change the forecast.

Completely clear, golden and lightly bronzed coloured body with a thinnish, very fast-dying pure white head. Aroma of sour and tart fruit with some berries up front, but a lot of lactose and bretty/lactobilly scents noticeable throughout, in a good, very funky way. Light-bodied; Super tart and funky lactobilly flavours dominate with a lot of vanilla and creamy notes that couple quite nicely with the tart berry and lemon flavours that roam through immediately after, with a light wheat and very fresh coriander seed finish. Aftertaste shows the soured and funky light malts with a little dash of sweetness and fruity flavours from some tropical fruits, but finishes quite funky and super light-bodied with mellow flavours. Overall, a nice and super-easy-drinking and flavourful beer with more of the super funky lactobilly and bretty flavours than from the fruits or the kettle soured profile that you'd expect, but in that, the beer is more complex and enjoyable throughout. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 23-June-2019 for US$3,99 sampled at home in Washington on 10-November-2019.
