If you’re a cocktail drinker in Denver, you’ve likely tried a libation with a dash of creativity from Alex Jump and Stuart Jensen.
Jump spent four years as the bar manager for Death & Co. in Denver before starting a consulting business and emerging as a leader in the low- and non-alcoholic beverage movement. Jensen is co-owner of local drinkeries Curio and Roger’s Liquid Oasis, and was part of the ownership group at the now-defunct Brass Tacks in LoDo.
Together Jump and Jensen, who got married earlier this year, are a cocktail power couple shaking up the local scene, and in 2025, they’ll debut their first concept together.
The Peach Crease Club, coming to 4180 N. Wynkoop St., Suite 130, promises to be a sophisticated joint featuring a robust menu of craft cocktails, both boozy and non-alcoholic, alongside beers and wines. Jump and Jensen are designing the space to showcase their love of the mid-century modern aesthetic with warm colors and cozy seating they hope will inspire patrons to linger.
“Just as much as we love going to our friends’ spaces, we’d love to create a space our friends come on their nights off,” Jump said.

Fittingly, the bar is something of an extension of their home. During COVID, the couple built a small bar in their backyard where they hosted friends and maintained a vibe that was missing from many establishments during the height of the pandemic. They gave it a cheeky name – The Peach Crease Club – inspired by a similarly named watering hole featured in HBO’s “The Outsider.”
Though the name of the forthcoming spot originated with those backyard hangs, Jensen said the project was in the works much farther back. He knew the developers who were constructing commercial properties by Mission Ballroom in River North Arts District – the same complex where the new Left Hand Brewing Co. is located – and hoped to add an original concept to the offerings near the venue. The pandemic tabled those …read more
