College friends take the plunge after reviewers offer overwhelming support.
Two home brewers in Grand Rapids hope to help people find their Zen with the launch of Zenned Out Kombucha, a kombucha microbrewery coming soon to e-commerce.
Co-founders Kyle Manning and Matt Hoff met each other through a mutual friend, at a time when both of them were leaving college and trying to leave behind poor health choices that come with it for a more health-conscious lifestyle.
Matt Hoff
Hoff started drinking kombucha about five years ago and discovered a positive impact on his personal health. The experience inspired him to want to share the health benefits with as many people as possible, and he and Manning, who were gym partners at the time, began to devise how to turn kombucha brewing into a business.
