Piva Beer Spa
A Czech Republic Tradition Comes To The Windy City (Chicago, IL) – The Beer Spas of Prague are renowned for their revitalizing and healthful qualities but it can be a time consuming and expensive journey for many of us just to get there. But now Americans can immerse themselves in the herbs and extracts commonly used to brew beer and not travel any further than Chicago.
Piva Beer Spa is the first authentic European-style beer spa in the nation but we expect that it won’t be the last … Soaking for hours in the beer spa’s unique combination of natural ingredients will help stimulate your metabolism, remove harmful substances from the body and ease you into an almost Zen state of mental and physical relaxation.
The Piva Beer Soak experience is hardly a stoic exercise …In keeping with the Czech Republic tradition guests can order huge platters of bread, meat, and cheese, as well as enormous tankards of craft beer to enjoy while soaking in the tub. And plans for the future include CBD soaks so visitors can relax in cannabis enzymes that are also reputed to have enormous health benefits.
Words To Soak By (Chicago, IL) – “At Piva Beer Spa we go back to our roots. Beer has been around for thousands of years and it has been found that our ancient ancestors used it for more than just knocking bottles back with good friends.” Owner Dino Sarancic / Piva Beer Spa
The mezzanine at Maine Beer Co. in Freeport, Maine. –Maine Beer Company
A New Maine Beer Destination (Freeport, ME) – Maine Beer Company is celebrating its expansive new taproom and the northeaster craft beer community just can’t get enough of it.
Maine Beer’s towering tasting room takes over the former production space (which was relocated to a big barn-like structure to the side of the building), and is about six times as large as before. According to Boston.com, “one of the most striking hangout spaces is in the room’s center: Guests sit and eat around a circular stone water fountain, aglow in its blue light beneath a looming sculpture of a tree that shines with intricate copper leaves.”
The Maine Beer Company’s new temple to serious drinking features 20 draft lines, and includes several limited and brewery-only releases that will ensure its craft beer destination status.
What We’ve Been Drinking Lately (Hood River, OR) – The pFriem Family Brewers produce a great line of Flanders-Style Ales including this lesser known favorite. Bursting with fresh green apple notes, pFriem Flanders-Style Blonde Ale was aged for more than eighteen months in oak Pinot Noir barrels. (7.1% ABV)
