Collaboration with Buxton Brewing (UK). During a trip through the UK, the Wilderness/Buxton Brewers conceptualized a hybrid beer using refined traditional English malts along with outlandish Amercian Hops including Citra, Simcoe, Centennial, and Mosaic. The result is a balanced beer that pushes the stylistic boundaries of ESB, which would cause Camra members to yell "Rubbish!"

Pours with a clear copper body that supports a nice dirty white head leaving behind some sheet lacing. The aroma offers up some citrus, a bit of pine hops and then fresh tangerines mixed with malts and a slight candied fruit sensation. The taste delivers a pleasing hoppy punch that’s orange, Clementine, pine hops and then some sweeter malts blended with a touch of roasted malts and a biscuit malt sort of feel. Dang, this is good. It’s bitter with hops, has a nice malt base biased towards a bit of roasted malts and then a dash of citrus freshness. When I have a standard Bitter this is what I want it to taste like. Yum.
