Best mechanical keyboard in 2015?

I've been spending more time coding on my Macbook and the keys are nice but I wish for more feedback. I've tried few mechanical keyboards and I think I like that.

I don't know much about them but I'd like for the keyboard to be:

1/ illuminated with backlight 2/ standard layout like normal keyboards have 3/ usb 4/ classic look

I've seen Das Keyboard which doesn't look bad but it looks kinda glossy to me, I worry it'd look really dirty.

I really like the look of Happy Hacking keyboard but layout seems to be a bit strange - I don't mind the delete key and relocated backlash button but I worry I might miss ALT key. I'll be using this with OS X a lot so I don't want to relearn everything.

Any ideas?
