Ancient elixir of life
Happy Leaf Kombucha
Why locals love it
Denver's RiNo neighborhood is packed with breweries- but none quite like Happy Leaf. Rather than beer or spirits, Happy Leaf produces kombucha. A beverage made by made by fermenting tea, organic cane sugar, a symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast, has been called by some the secret to a long healthy life and dates back over 2000 years.
Why you should visit it
Kombucha is an effervescent, slightly tart potion loaded with probiotic, detoxifying and mood enhancing bacterium, acids and vitamins. Some brews bear an unpleasant resemblance to vinegar, but not those at Happy Leaf. A few of their unique rotating flavors are cranberry lavendar, orange vanilla, lemongrass mint and cherry with citra hops.
Special tip
Try a flight of flavors in the tap room, you may well discover a new staple component of your health regime. Kombucha makes a great hang-over cure.
