In Palm Springs (2020), Nyles is drinking "Akupara" beer. In Sanskrit, Akupara means "unlimited, unbounded" and in Hinduism, it's the name of a tortoise described as "one who is without death." Confirmed by the director, source in comments.
Yes! Akupara is a brand of beer that was invented for the movie. In Sanskrit, the word means "unlimited, unbounded" and in Hinduism, it's the name of a tortoise described as "one who is without death."
"If you look close on that label, there's a graphic that kind of explains the mythology of the world and the earthquake," Barbakow says, recommending a google of Akupara that will take you down a "nice little wormhole, no pun intended, that explains some of the metaphysics behind the movie."
He credits production designer Jason Kisvarday with creating the look of the beer.
Andy Samberg has stated that although they never specify exactly how long Nyles has been stuck in this loop, its suggested the sweet spot is somewhere between forty years and forty million.

I knew I loved this movie when out of nowhere Andy Samberg gets hit with an arrow and yelled out “I thought I smelled you, you piece of shit!”
It was just so wonderfully bizarre.
