If you're a beer aficionado who's into the creativity and artistry of true home brewing then the Rocky Mountain Brewery is the place for you. I know I have enjoyed their brews since I started coming here in 2007. I can't help but get a taste of each of the brews they have on tap at the time and then usually get a Growler of my current favorite to enjoy at home.
They not only brew their own product on premisis, but time lease space and equipment for the Home Brewer who doesn't have the equipment or space to make their favorite personalized brew.
Duane Lujan (Owner/Operator) moved his once fledgling operation "My Home Brew Shop" from its digs on Academy Blvd a few years ago when the old Blicks Brewery went out of business over on the east side of Colorado Springs. Duane and his partner took their 30 plus years of home brewing experience and, after some wrangling to get the licensing in order, opened Rocky Mountain Brewery with the Home Brew Shop and Wine Makers supply store in the front.
The Beer Drinker's Guide to Colorado has this very comprehensive article to say about this fine establishment.

This small local Micro Brewery has also won a prestigious International Gold Medal Award at the
Brewers Association World Beer Cup competition in category 5 for their Cherry Pie Da Yoopers beer. Here is a

B'z BBQ is located just outside by the patio, so if you want food and beer, make sure you check them out. Parking on the street is always available and trivia night is Thursday night.
The hours of operation can be somewhat variable if their is still a late night crowd so the 9 PM closing changes sometimes.
