CO- Iconic Copper Club Brewery With Real Estate For Sale

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a brewery and beer garden with real estate in touristy Fruita, CO.

Copper Club is renowned for its award winning beer, street tacos, and live music. This well known establishment is the locals' hangout year-round; it has even been coined “Fruita’s Living Room”. However, the tourists more than double the customer base from April to October. As Fruita continues to grow in popularity as the undisputed mountain biking capital of Colorado, Copper Club is poised to share in that growth. And the Copper Club stage is fast becoming a great go-to place to hear Live Music on a regular basis.

This business specializes in traditional style beers, but always throws in a few seasonal and experimental brews to keep things interesting for their loyal customer base. Colorado grown ingredients are used whenever possible and most of their base malts are from Proximity Malt out of Monte Vista, Colorado.

If beer is not your preference, no problem, as Copper Club has expanded its adult beverage offerings to include local Colorado wine and spirits. The owners used to farm out eating options to food truck vendors. However, they recently added a food trailer of their own selling street tacos.

Business price is $525,000 and Real Estate is $870,000. (We have a 3rd party valuation to prove the value.)

Be a part of an iconic local, highly profitable brewery and event venue set in a thriving, bustling tourist town in beautiful Western Colorado.

Facilities Information:

The owners have made a lot of improvements to the facility over the past few years. The brewhouse is only running at 40% capacity, so it can potentially brew twice the amount of beer. The same can be said about their food. They can double their food sales without having to make changes to the facility.

Reason For Sale:

The owners wish to focus on other personal interests.

Training & Support:

The employees know this business is for sale and plan to stay on through the transition. The sellers will stay on as well as long they are needed.

Owner Qualifications:

No brewing or restaurant background required. All key employees are staying on, and the owners will remain as long as needed.

Competition:

Competition has been good for everyone. With Hot Tomato, Basecamp Provisions, and Suds Brothers nearby, Mulberry Street is known as a food and beverage hub of the Grand Valley now.

Potential Growth:

As Fruita continues to grow in popularity, so will Copper Club. During Covid, the city blocked off the street making a gathering place. It has helped Mulberry Street to attract tourists.
