Beer Bath Bliss: Oakwell Beer Spa Opens New Location in Highlands Ranch!

Oakwell Beer Spa, the unique Denver retreat where guests can sip Colorado brews while soaking in beer-infused baths, has opened a second location near Highlands Ranch at 6660 Timberline Road. Inspired by a European beer spa the founders visited during travels through 25 countries, Oakwell offers a taproom, relaxation lounge, and beer therapy amenities like infrared saunas and hops-based treatments. The new spa, still under construction, will maintain the original concept with slight interior differences and is expected to open in spring 2025.
