20 years as a special forces officer, certified cicerone, and nationally recognized beer taster,Steve Stowell is the owner of SSS Brewery. With six years of brewing experience Steve passes his knowledge onto his “Beeristas” who were extremely helpful when trying to select a style of beer. Located in downtown Colorado Springs, you wouldn’t know if you were entering a cafe or brewery. With all the photographs for sale, the long halls, and the smell of coffee this felt like a place where you could snuggle up to your favorite pint and really
enjoy it. Yes a semi-grown man just said to snuggle your beer. Pete, Zack , and I noticed during our tasting that across the board Triple S’s beers
were great. After a little confusion about which and how many beers we wanted the beerista soon realized that one we may have a problem, and two “yes, all, we would like to try ALL of your beers.” With the knowledgeable staff and excellent beer selection we recommend you go in, have a pint, and thank Steve for the great beer and his service to our country.
