Brewing Up Community at Ivywild School with Mike and Amanda Bristol
Episode 70
Monday, 23 February, 2026

Mike and Amanda Bristol started brewing beer in their home in North Florida in the early 90s. But soon beer transitioned from a hobby to a vocation when they opened Bristol Brewing here in Colorado Springs. When the nearby Ivywild School announced it was closing, the pair helped rescue the neighborhood centerpiece and turned it into the space we know today. Now offering a variety of food and craft beverage options, Ivywild continues to act as a community gathering space. Visitors can take a nostalgic stroll through familiar school hallways – hearing echoes and creaks of students' past, all while sipping a beer. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss our next episode!
