Do you wear clothes in a Beer Spa?

It depends on the spa’s policy. Many guests wear a swimsuit and sandals, and some spas offer disposable options. At Oakwell Beer Spa, your Beer Therapy Circuit is in a private suite, so a swimsuit is optional—wear whatever makes you comfortable; flip-flops are recommended for convenience.

What do you wear to Oakwell beer spa?

Your Beer Therapy Circuit takes place in a private room, so you can wear a swimsuit or go without—whatever you prefer. Sandals or flip-flops are helpful for moving around, and in shared areas like the taproom, wear appropriate cover-up attire.

Do you sit in beer in a Beer Spa?

No. Beer spas use warm water infused with ingredients like hops, barley, and botanicals rather than a tub of finished beer. The blend is designed to nourish the skin and enhance relaxation.

What is the Oakwell Beer Spa + Verboten Brewing feature?

Oakwell Beer Spa spotlights Verboten Brewing for a limited time, offering a rotating selection of Verboten beers on the self-pour tap wall and themed touches that complement the Beer Therapy experience. Check Oakwell’s site for the current tap list and availability.

Can I enjoy Verboten Brewing at Oakwell without booking a spa treatment?

Yes. You can visit the taproom to try the featured Verboten beers without a spa reservation, subject to capacity and legal drinking age requirements. If you want the Beer Therapy Circuit, book a private suite in advance.

October Tap Takeover at Oakwell Beer Spa: Verboten Brewing

Verboten Brewing at Oakwell Beer Spa: October 2023

If you’re looking for the best thing to do in Denver in October, look no further. Enjoy a relaxing spa day at Oakwell Beer Spa with local craft beer from Verboten Brewing. In this article, we’ll share what you can expect from the Oakwell Beer Spa experience and which delicious brews you can try alongside your spa day. We partner with a local Colorado brewery every month and share five of their best beers on tap. We also use hops from one of the beers in our rejuvenating beer bath blend. We’re excited to partner with Verboten Brewing & Barrel Project this October!

Fun Facts About Verboten Brewing & Barrel Project

Verboten Brewing & Barrel Project is in downtown Loveland, Colorado. Before we dive into which of their beers you can enjoy at Oakwell this October, let’s check out some fun brewery facts.

Verboten owners lived in Fort Collins, where they had some of the best breweries in their backyards. As they developed a passion for beer, they started home brewing and fell in love with the process and community.
The brewery’s name comes from the German word “forbidden.” It references the German beer-purity laws, which forbade brewers in the 15th and 16th centuries from using anything but water, barley, and hops in beers.
When Verboten moved to its downtown Loveland location in 2016, they added Barrel Project to the name to emphasize a passion for the art of barrel-aging beers. There’s usually at least one delicious barrel-aged option on tap.
All of Verboten Brewing’s beers are an exciting mix of traditional styles and experimental brews. Every Friday, they have a brand new beer for customers to try out.
Their beers have won several awards, including the 2017 Bronze at the Great American Beer Festival for their Little Nonsense, Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout. They’ve also won six World Beer Cup awards, three Festival of Barrel-Aged Beer awards, and ten US Open Beer Championships.
Their most awarded beers are Grow Old With You, an English Barleywine, and its barrel-aged counterpart, Double Oaked Cognac Grow Old With You.
Verboten’s most popular beer is the Thinking of Something Orange (TOSO), which you can try at Oakwell Beer Spa this October.

October Brews at Oakwell Beer Spa

Oktoberfest

Marzen-Style Lager, 5.8% ABV What better way to enjoy fall in Denver than with a tasty Oktoberfest? Verboten’s Oktoberfest is hopped with Hallertau Blanc and Saaz hops. It’s light gold in color with a bready, toasty malt character.

Thawed Out IPA

Cold IPA, 6% ABV If you like your IPAs crisp, you’ll love the cold-fermented Thawed Out IPA. It uses Cashmere and Cascade hops for a subtle touch of sweetness, a hint of lemon and pine, and zesty grapefruit notes.

October’s Beer Bath Blend at Oakwell Beer Spa

Oakwell Beer Spa’s signature spa treatment is the Beer Bath Hydrotherapy, where you can enjoy a calming, bubbly beer bath. You’ll relax in the cedar hydrotherapy tub with thousands of soothing bubbles and a crafted blend of beneficial herbs, hops, and barley. The rejuvenating beer bath blend contains vitamins, antioxidants, and nutrients that offer many wellness benefits. This October, our beer bath blend uses Columbus Hops with Rahr Malt from Verboten Brewing’s TOSO Orange Wheat. It also has our herb of the month, Hawthorne berries. It’s easy to unwind in this therapeutic beer bath blend! Antioxidants in the berries protect your skin and help produce a natural glow. Anti-inflammatory properties will also help you relax your muscles and joints.

FAQ

Let’s answer some common questions so you can come to Oakwell Beer Spa ready to relax differently!

Beer Bath Hydrotherapy at Oakwell Beer Spa

Can I really drink beer during my spa treatments?

Absolutely! Beer has properties that help aid in relaxation, so we encourage guests to sip beer (or our other beverages) while enjoying spa treatments. When you arrive at Oakwell Beer Spa, you’ll receive a double-wall insulated stainless steel tumbler you can use in the taproom and private Beer Therapy Room. Your tumbler will keep your drink ice cold, even in the warm beer bath and sauna. The only place we ask guests not to take beverages is in the Relaxation Lounge, where you can enjoy a Zero Gravity Massage experience.

What spa services does Oakwell offer?

Unlike a traditional day spa, Oakwell Beer Spa offers unique spa services, including Beer Bath Hydrotherapy, an Infrared Sauna, and Zero Gravity Massage. Our spa packages let you relax differently for an unmatched wellness experience.

How does the self-serve beer wall work?

Our self-serve beer wall is one of our most exciting features. When you arrive, a receptionist will walk you through the process. That said, the self-serve beer wall is easy to use by following these simple steps:

When you arrive, you’ll get a card to scan and unlock taps on the beverage wall.
Explore the rotating selection of Verboten Brewing beers on taps. You’ll also find other drinks, including wine and cider. The beer wall shows tasting notes and the price per ounce for each beverage.
Choose your drink, scan your card, and pour as much or as little as you’d like.
When you’re ready to check out, bring your card to the receptionist to pay for the ounces you poured.

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

Of course! We love for guests to hang out in our cozy taproom with or without booking an appointment. The self-serve taproom is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy delicious beers. The taproom has comfortable seating and conversation cards for a unique experience. Feel free to settle in with a drink and hang out solo or with friends for as long as you’d like.

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 else. That’s why we also serve wine, cider, tea, and kombucha.

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

Please do! The taproom is ideal for kicking back and unwinding before and after your spa day.
