TUMWATER, Wash. A classic local icon, the original Rainer Beer logo with the BIG RED R, will be featured on the newest debit card for O Bee CU, the one-time credit union for Olympia Brewery.
The Big Red R was a familiar landmark along the I-5 corridor heading into Seattle for 50 years. O Bee CU has negotiated licensing of the iconic brand with the current owners, Pabst.
"Many people have fond memories of the Rainier Beer brand and especially the clever commercials during the 1960 and ’70s. Rainier Brewery closed in 1999, and production was moved to the Olympia brewery for several years," said Lee Wojnar, vice president of marketing for the $175-million credit union.
