Beer In Ads #3798: Rainier’s Plans For ’56?

July 26, 2021 By Jay Brooks

Monday’s ad is for “Rainier Beer,” from January of 1956. This ad was made for the Seattle Brewing & Malting Co., who made Rainier Beer, and was later known as the Rainier Brewing Company of Seattle, Washington. This one is announcing, or rather teasing, the brewery’s plans for 1956 using two hippos. I don’t know what their plans were, but I guess they were huge.
