FAQ

WHAT IS THIS DRINK, REALLY?

SWRL is a new kind of hard seltzer—made from real Korean rice and inspired by makgeolli, Korea’s original rice-based alcoholic drink. It’s fizzy, light, and not too sweet.

WHAT IS MAKGEOLLI?

Makgeolli (mahk-OH-lee) is Korea’s traditional rice-based alcoholic drink—cloudy, fizzy, and a little tangy.
Brewed for centuries from just rice, water, and yeast, it’s got a gentle sweetness, subtle tartness, and a creamy, smooth texture from real rice.

And yes, it’s a classic: makgeolli is one of Korea’s most popular and beloved drinks, enjoyed by all generations—shared everywhere from countryside picnics to bustling city bars.

WHAT MAKES SWRL DIFFERENT?

We took the heart of this Korean classic and gave it a bold, modern twist. SWRL is the first-ever hard seltzer crafted with traditional Korean rice fermentation—all the way from Yeongwol, Korea.
It’s fizzy, refreshingly light, and packed with unique flavors. Zero sugar, just 89 calories, gluten-free, vegan, and a whole new way to swirl, sip, and discover something different.

WHY IS THERE STUFF AT THE BOTTOM?

That’s real rice sediment! It’s proof you’re drinking the real thing. The rice settles naturally—just give your can a gentle swirl for that signature cloudy texture.

HOW DO I SWIRL?

Easy: swirl side to side, or any way you want (gently!). You can swirl before you open, or after—give it a gentle shake as you sip and notice how the texture changes with every swirl. Mixing up the rice sediment brings out the best flavor and textures, so have fun and find your perfect swirl.

WHAT DOES SWRL TASTE LIKE?

Best served cold! SWRL tastes freshest when chilled. Because it’s naturally fermented and fizzy, keeping it cold helps control the bubbles—if the can gets warm, carbonation can build up and may cause it to fizz over when you open it.
For the best experience, pop it in the fridge before you swirl and sip!
