    Weird -- I was listening to the David Paulides interview on Coast to Coast AM (Feb. 29, 2024), when he was discussing mysterious disappearances at and around Mount Rainier. An old, unbidden memory surfaced of this beer commercial featuring Mount Rainier -- I'd seen it in 1979 during a commercial break for "Saturday Night Live." Decided to look it up, and here it is: top search result!
    Nothing disappears forever.

    This was part of the Best commercial ever made. It was only shown 3x and the FCC pulled it. Just as the m/c was rounding the corner it was hit head on by a Hamms Beer truck driven by the Hamms Bear. It simply said "Hamms"...lmao

    I lived in Port Angeles, WA in the late 70's and drank a lot of Rainier Beer and remember this commercial. The other great Rainier commercials were: Mickey Rooney in search of the Wild Rainiers, The running of the Rainiers. Great times!

      @sd31263 Місяць тому

      The ale was great. I first encountered it in a Safeway store in Kennewick, WA in about 1981-82. The first one didn't go down too well but I eventually developed a taste for it. I'm talking about the original ale, not the latter day stuff sold in the 1990s and later in 40s and jacked up to 8 percent.
