WeldWerks Brewing Co. Breaks Ground on Colorado Springs Location

August 22, 2019 by Dow Scoggins

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado — After months of meticulous planning and careful deliberation, WeldWerks Brewing Co. will begin renovations for their second location west of Downtown Colorado Springs in Old Colorado City. The WeldWerks team will break ground on the former site of The Dive diner (3043 W. Pikes Peak Ave., Colorado Springs, CO 80904) in early September with a tentative grand opening date slated for October.

“Anyone who has seen The Dive understands that it will be a full rehab but we will be basically keeping the same structure with new skin,” says Colin Jones, co-founder and CEO at WeldWerks. “We came up with some pretty out-there designs but ultimately, we elected to retain as much of the original structure as possible.”

With the help of [au]workshop architects + urbanists, the WeldWerks team will flex their creative muscles to create a space that showcases their commitment to innovation and hospitality. The soon-to-be-named 1,300 square feet facility will include an outdoor beer garden and a second-story treehouse-inspired patio with incredible views. Much of the historic building, which was built in the 1900s, will retain the cozy and funky character of Old Colorado City with a WeldWerks flair.

“Colorado Springs is an outdoorsy town so we want to make sure we’re adding conveniences and considerations for this crowd in our beer garden,” said Kristin Popcheff, director of operations at WeldWerks.

Perks for outdoor enthusiasts will include a dog-friendly outdoor area, summer movies and lawn games. Outdoor areas will also include fire pits and patio heaters so beer drinkers can enjoy their libations outside all year-round. The brewery also plans to partner with local nonprofits and local businesses for beer dinners, fundraising events, and other collaborative events.

Great American Beer Bars
“The Dive had so much character and just speaks to us,” said Kristin Popcheff, director of operations at WeldWerks. “It’s certainly in need of a lot of love and TLC but we’re up for the challenge and see endless potential with this space.”

Details including the name of the Colorado Springs location and the date for WeldWerks’ grand opening party will be announced at a later time.
