Rainier Brewing Company
The Rainier Brewing Company is an American owned beer brand, originally established in Seattle, Washington (state), Washington. Rainier Beer remains a popular brand in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Although Rainier was founded in 1884, the Seattle site had been brewing beer since 1878. The beer is not currently brewed in Seattle, nor is the company owned locally, but remains American owned with a Seattle-based sales and marketing team. After a series of ownership transfers starting in the 1970s, the company was sold to Stroh's and then to Pabst Brewing Company by the late 1990s. The brewery was closed by Pabst in 1999 and sold, while Rainier beer continues to be sold by Pabst. The brewery itself is a well-known fixture in the south end of town, adjacent to Interstate 5, I-5 just north of the Spokane Street Viaduct. The plant was home to the Tully's Coffee headquarters, Bartholomew Winery, Red Soul Motorcycle Fabrications, as well as artist lofts, band practice sp ...

Rainier Valley ( ) is a neighborhood in southeastern Seattle, Washington. It is located east of Beacon Hill; west of Mount Baker, Seward Park, and Leschi; south of the Central District and north of Rainier Beach. It is part of Seattle's South End.

Native Americans had several encampments in the area prior to the settlers, and a permanent village at the south end of the valley.

They included 43 military effects tests on civil and military structures, radiation and bio-medical studies, and aircraft structural tests.
