Experience the story behind one of the Pacific Northwest’s most beloved beer brands in a screening of Rainier: A Beer Odyssey. The documentary traces how a small Seattle advertising agency transformed Rainier Beer through a bold and unconventional marketing campaign that helped redefine advertising and became a lasting part of Northwest culture.

Following the screening, filmmakers Isaac Olsen, Robby Peterson, and Justin Peterson will participate in a brief panel conversation about the making of the film and the legacy of Rainier’s iconic ads.

Admission includes a selection of catered bites and two drink tickets. Additional alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase. Please note that this event is for guests ages 21 and over, and valid ID is required for entry.
