I miss the TV ads for Olympia. "It's the water......and a lot more......"

Artesian well-water. Had everybody asking what the hell an artesian was.

My Dad took me and my brother to tour the brewery once when we were kids. We couldn't sample the beer at the end of the tour, of course. But the brewery maintained a water fountain that provided the same artesian well water they used to brew the beer. It bubbled up from a shiny copper fountain, and tasted delicious.
