I'm a member of the old Olympia brewery employees credit union (OBEE) They've got several calendars and such with all sorts of pictures of Oly beer with actors, sports stars, etc. Pretty cool seeing that stuff.

I have a 4-digit account number at OBee. Most of the memorabilia was donated by my family to them.
Clint Eastwood was one of Oly’s only official spokesmen. In his movies, when he lit a cigar with a zippo, it was an Oly and in a lot of his movies, the saloon mirrors had the horseshoe on it.

Hasn't basically every presidential candidate released their tax returns as regular practice?

I used to get Olympia in a keg for an old door tapped refrigerator at the first auto shop I worked at. Out of the keg is was good. Canned not so much.

I took a plasma and a cut off saw and butchered most of the stainless steel pipes and valves and related BS out of all the buildings except the bottling plant about 20 years ago. Many TONS of 3", 4", 6", 5" and 7" SS tubing.
I molested lady Oly from the inside out. Gutted her!

I molested lady Oly from the inside out. Gutted her! What American Bottled Water did to that place was criminal (literally). When I toured her a few years ago it was a sad site to see every kettle, urn, pipe, wire, stripped from her and left to rot. The only pipes they didn’t touch were the ones wrapped in asbestos (which is most of them). Hence why that building is still even there. The abatement cost to remove all the ACM is 5x the value of the property.

I never did know for certain, feel free to delete if it's not appropriate convo for the open board.

American Water was the shell company that was created to funnel investor money. Capital Salvage ended up with the property after Water man failed to pay up. They are the ones who pulled the metal out and gutted the buildings.
Well B ng bought the property in foreclosure and then battled with the city over well water rights. The city wanted to condemn the wells (so they could use them) Ng wanted bazillllions.
It’s changed hands half a dozen times by now.
