I. The formation of Kuhnhenn Brewing Company
In 1998, in a small space in Warren, Michigan, Kuhnhenn Brewing Company began its journey as a brewing supply store. Founded by brothers Brett and Eric Kuhnhenn, their passion and relentless creativity drove them to explore the endless possibilities of the world of craft beer.
During the late 90s, Kuhnhenn Brewing Company was constantly experimenting and exploring new beer recipes. With an innovative mindset, they created unique beers that broke all the limits of traditional flavors, from fruity beers to rich, complex beers.
In the early 2000s, marking a difference, Kuhnhenn Brewing Company began to be more widely known for unique beers such as DRIPA (Double Rice IPA) - a subtle combination of strong flavor and light, elegant taste.
In the years that followed, Kuhnhenn Brewing Company continued to expand, from its production facilities to its distribution system. Each beer that was born was not just a drink, but also a story, a passion that the Kuhnhenn brothers put into it.
