About Brewer's Foods

Brewer's is an Upcycled cracker and chip company driven to reducing food waste in the craft brewing industry. Spent grains are a valuable by-product from the beer making process. When making beer, brewers steep super high-quality grains, like barley, in water. They then strain this mixture, keeping the liquid to make beer and discard the "spent" grains. Turns out, these grains are still incredibly flavorful and the steeping process actually unlocks valuable nutrients. We recycle these grains into our crackers and chips. Our goal is to rise above other cracker companies by providing our customers with an honest, healthy, sustainable, and delicious product. Ever since I was a young boy I have felt most comfortable in the kitchen. My father owned a bagel store so I grew up in and around the food industry. Eventually I followed this path and became a cook and forager, working in some of the country's top farm to table restaurants and dedicating myself to local food. Having been in the food and beverage industry for years, I befriended brewers from around the country. I found that we all had one common struggle; food waste. We all hated wasting product. When biking to work one day in Brooklyn, New York, I witnessed thousands of pounds of spent brewers grains from a local brewery being thrown out, right outside of an adjacent bakery. The smell of the fresh grains and the bakery next door led me to wrack my mind for what could be to save it!!Read their story
