WHEAT RIDGE, Colo. — April 2025 — Prost Brewing Co., a Colorado-based leader in brewing authentic German-style biers, is proud to announce its newest expansion: a fifth biergarten opening in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, in early 2026.
The 6,800-square-foot biergarten will be part of the highly anticipated Clear Creek Crossing development, offering a scenic location next to Coors’ pond with sweeping mountain views. This new location continues Prost’s mission of creating welcoming, community-driven spaces where guests can enjoy award-winning beer and classic German hospitality.
“This expansion is part of our bigger vision for growth — building biergartens that bring people together through tradition and quality,” said David Deline, President of Prost Brewing Co. “We’ve spent years refining our brand and focusing on the authentic German experience. Whether you’re a local, a traveler, or just beer-curious, our biergartens are places where you can feel at home and drink like a German.”
A Unique Experience at the New Wheat Ridge Biergarten
Prost’s Wheat Ridge biergarten will feature an open-concept design with a fully enclosed patio, spacious dining areas, and private event space. A highlight of the location will be its 1-barrel research and development brewhouse, allowing guests to watch small-batch brewing in action.
The bar will showcase 40 taps, pouring Prost’s full lineup of German-style biers along with guest ciders, craft cocktails, wine, and non-alcoholic options. Visitors can expect Prost’s signature German-inspired food menu, featuring house-made items and partnerships with local favorites like Charcutnuvo sausages and XLVII’s Bakery.
Easy to Access, Built for Community
Conveniently located just off I-70 and along the Clear Creek bike path, the Wheat Ridge biergarten is designed to be a destination for both locals and out-of-town visitors. The biergarten will back up to a public park complete with an amphitheater, yard games, fire pits, and plenty of space to relax with a bier in hand.
This addition builds on Prost’s steady growth across Colorado, following successful biergartens in Denver, Fort Collins, Highlands Ranch, and Northglenn — the latter also home to Prost’s new 60,000-square-foot brewery and production facility.

The Story of Prost Brewing Company: Colorado’s Celebration of German Beer Craftsmanship
Founded in 2012 in Denver, Colorado, Prost Brewing Company has become a leading name in authentic German-style craft beer in the United States. From the beginning, Prost has focused on brewing traditional German lagers and ales using time-honored techniques and the highest quality ingredients—most of which are sourced directly from Germany.
The heart of Prost’s brewing operations began with a historic touch: they imported a 1963 copper brewhouse from the former Brauerei Hümmer, a brewery in Germany that operated for over 350 years. This rare, old-world system was painstakingly transported and reassembled in Denver, setting Prost apart with its commitment to Old-World authenticity from day one.
Prost follows the Reinheitsgebot—the German Beer Purity Law of 1516—which means their beers are brewed with just four ingredients: water, malt, hops, and yeast. This dedication to purity and quality has earned Prost multiple awards at prestigious competitions, including gold medals at the Great American Beer Festival for their Keller Pils, Weissbier, and Luna Lager.
As demand for their traditional German-style beers grew, so did Prost. The brewery expanded with biergartens in Fort Collins and Highlands Ranch, and in 2024, Prost opened a new state-of-the-art brewing facility and biergarten in Northglenn, Colorado. This flagship location boasts 60,000 square feet of brewing space, complete with energy-efficient equipment and sustainability-focused features like CO₂ recapture systems.
In recent years, Prost has introduced a range of new products and transitioned many of their core beers to cans, making their award-winning German-style biers more accessible across the United States. Their seasonal offerings now include Vienna Lager, Märzen, Radler, Helles, and an India Pale Lager (IPL), all brewed with the same care and traditional methods that define the Prost name.
Today, Prost Brewing Company continues to grow its footprint while remaining true to its roots—celebrating German beer culture, building community, and crafting clean, flavorful lagers that stand the test of time.
Drink like a German. Prost!
