Fun Facts About Pikes Peak Brewing Company

Pikes Peak is a brewery, brewpub, and beer garden in Monument, Colorado, just outside Colorado Springs. Before diving into which beers you can enjoy this August at Oakwell Beer Spa, let’s look at a few fun brewery facts.

• Pikes Peak was established in May 2011 by owner Chris Wright, who had been a homebrewer for 15 years.
• The brewery began as a small, 10-barrel brewery with a small tasting room that has since expanded. 
• Today, the taproom is a lively pet and family-friendly space with indoor seating and an expansive beer garden, serving a large selection of beer, food, wine, and canned cocktails. 
• In 2020, Pikes Peak also opened the Lager House in Downtown Colorado Springs to produce some of the best lagers in the area.
• Pikes Peak is known for creating a space that brings the community together. Recently, they had a John Denver celebration with several bands that brought in a large crowd. The brewery’s atmosphere perfectly fits their motto, “Life is better when lived together.”
• The Tejon Mexican Lager, which you can enjoy this August at Oakwell, was created in 2019 for Pikes Peak’s 8th anniversary. It’s still one of their most popular beers.

FAQs

Whether it’s your first visit to Oakwell Beer Spa or you’ve been before, make the most of your experience with answers to common questions.

Can I really drink beer during my spa treatments?

One of Oakwell Beer Spa’s most unique features is that you can enjoy beer during your spa treatments. When you arrive for your spa day, you’ll get an insulated stainless steel tumbler to keep your beverage cold while sipping and relaxing.

The only place we ask guests not to take drinks is the Relaxation Lounge, where you can enjoy the Zero Gravity Massage experience.

What spa services does Oakwell Beer Spa offer?

Unlike traditional day spas, Oakwell Beer Spa offers unique services, including Beer Bath Hydrotherapy, an Infrared Sauna, and a Zero-Gravity Massage.

The standard spa day package gives you access to a private Beer Therapy Room for up to two people. If you have a larger group, you can choose the Garage Party Package or rent the entire space for a private party.

How does the self-serve beer wall work?

The self-serve beer wall is fun and easy to use. When you arrive, we’ll walk you through how it works by following these simple steps:

1. Use the scan card you’ll receive when you arrive to unlock the taps on the beverage wall.
2. Explore the rotating selection of Pikes Peak beers and tasting notes with the price per ounce for each drink.
3. Select your drink, scan your card, and pour the amount you’d like.
4. When you’re ready to check out, take your card to the reception desk to pay for the ounces you poured.

Does Oakwell Beer Spa have anything else to drink besides beer?

We understand beer isn’t everyone’s thing, or sometimes you’re in the mood for something different. That’s why we also have water, cider, tea, kombucha, and wine.

Can I hang out in the taproom before and after my treatments?

You’re welcome to spend as much time as you like in the taproom before or after your spa services. There’s plenty of comfortable furniture, ideal for settling in to socialize and drink.

Can I just stop by for a beer without a spa treatment?

We’d love for you to hang out, whether you’re enjoying a spa treatment or not. The cozy taproom is ideal for relaxing and enjoying a drink or a few.
