I've never tried ordering beer online. But where can I find some of this beer?  I'm thinking it would be a good Christmas present for my brother who wants to try it after watching some show on Netflix.

It's in the grocery stores here in WA. Not sure how to mail order it. It's just kind of generic mass market lager, although better than the Bud/Miller/Coors unholy trinity imo.

Just head on over here to WA and you can find it in just about any corner stop and rob.

The Green Death is where it's at my friend.  Don't waste your time with the beer.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainier_Brewing_Company#In_popular_culture

In the A&E 2012 television series Longmire, the series' main character Sheriff Walt Longmire exclusively drinks Rainier beer, and can be seen drinking it throughout the series. In the pilot episode, a colleague accuses Longmire of drunk driving after empty beer cans are found in his car; Longmire explains the presence of the empty beer cans by saying "Every man who's ever had a beer with me will tell you the same thing - I drink Rainier, always have, always will. Those beer cans, they weren't Rainier, none of them. I picked 'em up because I hate looking at litter. Everyone knows that, too." Longmire pronounces the beer's name "ran-YEAH" in an approximation of a French pronunciation, which may be inaccurately seen as a mistake. Many Washington natives do favor this pronunciation, however, either in jest or as an affectionate nickname. In the final episode of season 1, "Unfinished Business," Denver detective Fails (portrayed by Charles S. Dutton) uses the "ray-NEAR" pronunciation commonly associated with the beer's namesake mountain.

Bevmo has the ale but not the lager.

Do ya'll have Trader Joe's or other large national good beer selection grocers? They can probably order some for you.

It's like X-Men powers in a 40 oz bottle.  Drink one or two quickly and you can fall down multiple flights of stairs without suffering any injury.  Ask me how I know

Did they actually change the brewing location/equipment/people/process, or was it just an ownership thing?

I used to drink a lot of Blitz back in the day.  Then Olympia bought up Weinhards brewing and completely ruined Henry Weinhard's.  I think someone bought it from them and put out a new version of Henry's which is pretty good.  I think Olympia did get bought up by the big brewers and it then sucked even worse.

Yep.


Pretty sure all the old brewing equipment (and factory) are museum pieces now. EDIT: I have no idea if they still follow the original recipe and use them same process. I would think, at least to some degree.

The commercials were always better than the cheap swill. (Frogs & motorcycles)

We drank Reindeer Piss & Oly Pop back in HS because it was $6.00 per 24  12oz from the bar. If We could find somebody to buy it for us.

Anybody remember Great Falls Select?  $5.50 per 24.

At least We rarely lowered Ourselves to the Hamm's level!

I'll be schlepping a couple cans up Mount Rainier in July to drink on the summit.


Seems a fitting thing to do.

I always loved that commercial.

BTW we can still get Rainier here but it's not the same beer as it was 15 or so years ago.
