Pours a hazy, darker orange/amber. Medium small white head. Scent is full, fresh, recognizable Cryo Pop blend, Tropical, whiff of stonefruit. Taste is surprisingly bitter, quite harsh green hops still (this beer is about 2 weeks old) . no hopburn, but truly a bit harsh nevertheless. Nice hoppy aroma ( again, cryo pop for the biggest part to me) . Body is chewy - not thick, but certainly not wattery. it goes towards what I usually call 'powdery'. Quite dank. Nice IPA, but the first version of Hops Or Die was more unique and balanced to me.
