ca. 1964. 1964 stock footage. The Olympia Brewing Co. plant is reflected in the large pond on company grounds in 1964. Visitors were invited to tour the facility daily from 8:00 to 4:30 pm to see how beer was made. The Olympia Brewing Co. had a long history in the Tumwater area, just south of Olympia. It was owned and operated by the Leopold Schmidt family for nearly 100 years. The company slogan, "It's the water," was very well known in the Western states. The brewery received its cold, pure water from deep artesian wells.
