Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Label, Rainier Pale Beer, Rainier Brewing Company, Seattle, Washington. Photographed at Pike Brewery, Pike Place Market, Seattle, Washington, USA. According to an exhibit label, this is pre-Prohibition (which in Washington State means pre-1916) but it is possible that is mistaken, because of the designation "Rainier Brewing Company". On the other hand, that designation is normally 1977–1999, and this certainly looks older than that. In any case, all of the basic elements of the design existed by 1906 (see http://www.brewerygems.com/rainier.htm, search for "Rainier Pale Beer label, Seattle c.1906"), and there were related entities called "Rainier Brewing Company" in both San Francisco and Kamloops, British Columbia at early enough dates to explain this label.
Date Label is believed to date from before 1916, when Prohibition began in Washington state. Photographed 2011-09-05
