As to the beer:
Emerald City Beer Company is located in the old Rainier Brewery.
A copper colored session lager made almost exclusively from ingredients grown right here in Washington.
The beer is 4.9% ABV. I don't know why they called it Dottie's.
So, for two of the singers who made the Seattle sound of grunge, if you can find it, have a Dottie's Seattle Lager. The beer is pretty much only available around the Seattle area.
