Description
First, you need to pronounce it right… it’s pronounced with a Z. Zul.

It might make you think of something you heard from a classic 80’s movie or a 90’s computer game. Urban Dictionary defines it as “bad in a cool kind of way” or “cool in a baaaad kinda way.”

To us, it’s all of this, and more.

Little too much for me to take.

Can from Half Barrel brought home. Peachy yellow and decent head. Nose is rich tropical fruits. Tastes of mango, pineapple, honey dew, white grape, papaya, some grass. Chewy palate.

Lots of sweet mango and peach (and residual sweetness), underlined by candied grapefruit peel and lemon drops. The tiniest hint of pine bitterness peeks through in the finish. Hazy as shit but not terribly pretty. Gets mildly astringent on the back end.

Sample at the OH DC outpost. Pours a murky orange with some clingy white head. Nose has huge oranges. I guess that's to be expected. Perfume and tangerine. Flavor has a pinch of melon and oat to go along with perfume and big big orange. Creamy finish and lightly spritzy. Really well made and drinkable.

Sampled at Shelter DC. Pretty straight forward pulp. Sudsy head, translucent orange body. Citra and Mosaic really lead, Simcoe is tough to find. Mostly fresh cream, mango, orange sherbet. Flavor is orange sherbet and mango candies, some circus peanut candy, some very sweet mandarin. Medium bodied, off dry.
