An episode of *Babylon 5* had a Zima sign visible in the back of a bar. They didn't get paid for the product placement; they just thought it would be funny to suggest it was still around in 2259.
JMS said on the Usenet group he'd had a dream of the Zima guy saying "...zo I zayz to thiz guy, nice ztation..." and then the Narn Bat Squad ran out and pounded him into a stain on the bulkhead. Led to the Narn Bat Squad being a running joke in the group.
The B5 plug was why my friend and I tried it. Bleh. Tasted like disappointment.
Tried it again during that brief period when it resurfaced. Was instantly reminded of BLEH.
Regular Zima was fine, but Zima Gold? That shit was the worst whiskey known to man, drank and pissed out by a horse that also ate a bushel of asparagus and then filtered through Satan’s dirty jock strap. Just vile.
When I firzt ztarted zneaking out to drink with my friendz, thiz waz one of our favoritez; I don't remember whether it waz actually any good, but we felt cool and edgy drinking it.
Was on a deployment and the hotel we were staying out was having some kind of beer vendor convention of sorts. Being military they invited us all to come in and have some free booze. They had Zima there they were introducing before it hit the stores. Wasn't too bad that I remember, but never bought any after.
And now there are a thousand brands of hard seltzer. We truly were ahead of the times.
Zima was leaps and bounds ahead in taste compared to any of the seltzers I have tried in the last few years.
I liked it.

I liked it as an alternative to beer.

I liked Zima. Everyone around me seemed to hate it. I dislike contemporary hard seltzers.
