From Airways Brewing:
KENT, WA (November 14, 2013/mbb/) – Beginning Tuesday, November 19th, 2013, Western Washington-area craft beer lovers can begin stocking up on Airways Brewing Company’s® Final Departure Imperial Stout™. This is the second year the growing Kent-based brewery has brewed this beer. Last year’s version of Final Departure won a Silver medal at the Washington Beer Awards in the Imperial American Stout category. 
“Last year we brewed Final Departure for the supposed end of the world, according to the Mayan calendar,” said Alex Dittmar, founder and head brewer at Airways Brewing Company. “As far as we can tell, the world didn’t end, so we get at least one more version of this tasty stout to enjoy.”
The 2013 version of Final Departure Imperial Stout boasts a 9.3 percent ABV and 70 IBUs. As Airways Brewing’s darkest and richest beer, notes of coffee and chocolate give way to a toasty finish accompanied by a firm hop bitterness. This limited edition stout is designed get better with age, so it can be consumed at the end of this year, or next – or anytime in between.
Final Departure will be available in 22-ounce bottles throughout Western Washington at select specialty bottle shops – including Chuck’s Hop Shop, 99 Bottles, Special Brews, Full Throttle Bottles, Beer Junction, Malt and Vine, Pint Defiance, Total Wine, Vashon Thriftway and more. Bottles will also be available for $8 at both Airways Brewing Co. locations and at airwaysbrewing.com starting November 19th.
