OUR PRODUCTS

Since March 2018, Beer Crisps have developed innovative food products while partnering with leading breweries around the world. ​

How does it work?

Food waste has many attributes, from surplus levels on farms, food disposed in homes, even supermarket expired foodstuff. In essence, any process where edible food is discarded.


Some waste streams have been around for so long, it has become the norm and is overlooked without a second thought.


Brewers spent grain is just such an ingredient.


To brew beer, malted barley grains are ground into smaller pieces and mixed with hot water. This activates enzymes that convert starches to sugars. The sugars are dissolved in the water, and the liquid is then separated from the remaining grains – this is brewers spent grain. For every litre of beer produced, between 0.2 and 0.25 kg of spent grain is thrown out. 


At Beer Crisps we believe in a sustainable future, one that addresses food waste and the innovations that go with it. That is why we have transformed the brewery by-products into a taste intensive and innovative product.


By using the brewing by-product as the main ingredient, valuable cultural land is being spared. By allowing one harvest to give two returns, farmers do not have to cultivate and water new lands. This allows sustainable management of precious farmlands. On top of that, because we use fresh spent grain - our production process requires no water, further adding to our water saving initiatives.


While we still have a way to go to stop food waste completely, we can start small – one crisp at a time.

We promote Zero Food Waste, Sustainable Food Production and Water Saving!

PARTNERSHIPS

We partner with breweries to create deliciously flavoured beer crisps made from their spent grain, a by-product of the beer-making process which is usually discarded.

BEER BRAISED CHIPOTLE CHICKEN NACHOS

This is one of our favorite recipes in the world! With beer braised chipotle chicken layered between beer crisps and cheddar cheesy goodness, nothing comes close. We like to add pickled jalapeños for extra flavour and make an avocado salsa on the side. This dish is perfect for a lazy Friday night, paired with a mojito or margarita.

BEER CRISPS & CHICKEN CASSEROLE

Chicken, cheese and crisps. Check, check and check. A delicious home made casserole for a cold winter's night. Great enjoyed on its own, or served with a green side salad.

CRUSHED BEER CRISPS JALAPEÑO POPPERS

This recipe is always a winner when you want to impress guests with a hot welcome (pun intended). Biting through the crunchy exterior reveals a creamy center, followed by a flaming explosion of flavour.

BEER CRISPS PLATTER

Perfect for a Saturday afternoon in the sun, or just watching the game. Add some tomato salsa, guacamole, cream cheese or even some gherkins. And don't forget the G&Ts.

VEGAN BEER CRISPS SOUP

Mexican meat free Mondays have never been this tasty. Packed full of autumn veggies, this warming soup comes together quickly and also freezes very well. A winner all around.

Our Founder

Beer Crisps was founded by Christo Worst in March 2018. 

Christo Worst (Pr.Eng.) is a mechatronic engineer by trade with a MSc. (Mechatronics) degree and has worked within the food production industry for the past 12 years.


"By product management has always been an interest of mine. I read about people making bread and cookies from spent grain - but that seemed really boring... I just wanted to make something cool, so why not make the perfect crisps to go with the beer?"


And  just like that Beer Crisps was born.
