USA, WA: Logan Brewing takes over Airways Brewing taproom and brewery in Kent

It’s been a poorly kept secret, but Logan Brewing didn’t want to make any assumptions or official announcements until the paperwork was settled. On March 16, the Burien-based brewery announced its plans to take over the Airways Brewing taproom and brewery in Kent, The Washington Beer Blog reported.

Airways Brewing closed the first of its two locations, the Bistro in downtown Kent, in October last year. A month later, it announced it was going out of business entirely and closing the brewery and taproom on 212th Street. It left a hole in the community. Airways Brewing’s owners hoped another brewery would move in and fill the void. That’s what just happened.

Chris Polumbo is one of the owners at Logan Brewing. He says that the paint is drying and they’re waiting on permits, but he hopes to open it to the public in May or June. He is noticeably excited about this development. The brewery has been looking for a way to increase production for some time, a problem that this development solves. Moving forward, Logan Brewing will produce much more beer, using the relatively new, state-of-the-art brewing equipment that Airways left behind.

“Logan Brewing is growing,” Chris said in the announcement. “We will be carrying on the legacy of Airways Brewing by taking over their former production brewery and taproom in Kent… We’re so excited to put down more roots in South King County! Born in Burien, Made in Kent!”

Logan Brewing’s current location, a brewery and taproom in downtown Burien, is just 10 miles away from what will become its second home at 8611 S 212th Street, Kent, WA. The Burien location will stay open.
