Outlook Good by Surly is a refreshing take on the nonalcoholic beer scene, offering a light and drinkable ale that stands out in its category.
Packaging
The can catches your eye with a solid yellow hue and an eight ball design. It’s simple, but it gets the job done.
Look
In the glass, it presents a clear light golden color that’s as sunny as its packaging. You won’t see much in the way of bubbles, and there’s no head to speak of.
Smell
When it comes to aroma, it’s a bit of a ghost town. You’ll need to get your nose right in there to catch the faintest hint of hops.
Mouthfeel
Surprisingly, there’s a decent amount of carbonation that brings a lively touch to its light body, culminating in a clean finish that’s quite pleasant.
Taste
The carbonation give the hops a pleasant pop, delivering on the promise of a light hoppy ale. No off flavors. There’s a with a nice bitter finish that lingers just enough.
Final Verdict
Overall, Outlook Good is a light, bubbly option that delivers a clean flavor. It may lack complexity, but it deserves props for bringing a unique style to the NA lineup. Cheers to that!
