Scope and content
ca. 1964. 1964 Stock footage. Exterior of Olympia Brewing Co. facilities. Visitors were made welcome daily at the Olympia Brewing Co. plant in Tumwater, south of Olympia. The Olympia Brewing Co. grew out of the Capital Brewing Co. in 1902 at which time they chose the phrase "It's the Water" to describe why their beers tasted so good. The Leopold Schmidt family owned and operated the brewery from 1896 to 1983. The All-American Bottled Water Corp. purchased the brewery from the Miller Brewing Co. on April 2, 2004, and would concentrate on bottling water, not beer. TPL-9323
