Buxton Brewery’s Wild Boar is a vibrant American IPA that leans into a contemporary, bright profile. Poured a pale straw with a resilient white head, it leads with a high-intensity aroma of spicy lime and tropical mango. The palate transitions from a brief touch of honey-inflected malt into a complex fruit punch character, supported by a firm, clean bitterness. True to the style, the fermentation remains neutral, allowing the hop-driven citrus and stone fruit notes to dominate. It concludes with a crisp, dry finish and a lingering hoppy aftertaste that invites another sip, showcasing a balanced yet hop-forward character.
Appearance.Pale straw color (approximately 3–5 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a fluffy, persistent white head that leaves moderate lacing.
Aroma.High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent notes of spicy lime zest and ripe mango. A low, clean, grain-forward maltiness is present with a subtle hint of honey. Fermentation is clean with no significant esters.
Taste.The initial impression is hop-forward with a fruit punch medley of tropical and citrus flavors. A light, supportive honey malt character provides a brief sweetness before being overtaken by a medium-high, clean bitterness. The finish is notably dry and crisp with a lingering hop-driven aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a smooth, non-astringent texture. Carbonation is moderate-high, providing a refreshing prickle. Alcohol warmth is very low and well-integrated.
