Colorado Beer Geek announced the news in a Facebook post and said the projected opening is set for April of next year. The business had a meeting with the city on August 15, where the license was granted.
Leasing data shows that the pub will take up 1,433 square feet of space, seat 12 at the bar, and have additional table and lounge seating, and a patio area.
Andrea L’Heureux, who co-owns the brewery with her husband Doug, told Colorado Beer Geek that the concept is named after the Micronesian word Kukaro, which “means to hang out, relax, and be.” Data online shows that the concept appeared to first be coined Platte River Brewing.
