Peak to Peak Tap & Brew (Aurora) (20 May 2017 to 23 Feb 2021)
In 2014, Peak to Peak Tap Room opened their doors to the Southeast Aurora community with 20 rotating taps and an attached kitchen that originally housed an independent chef and menu. This modest tap room expanded in 2017 to a brewpub. Adding another 10 taps to accommodate their own brews they became Peak to Peak Tap and Brew. They later acquired a second taproom and brewery space on Colfax Ave once occupied by Mu Brewery but later consolidated back to their original location with the Colfax spot turned over to Lady Justice Brewing. They closed their doors in February of 2021 after selling to Six Capital Brewing & BBQ.
