About
Crumbs Brewing was founded by Reigate husband and wife Morgan and Elaine Arnell in 2017. After many years working in the corporate world they were keen to create something together with a positive message at it’s heart. Shocked by the amount of wastage their local artisan bakery, Chalk Hills, had to deal with they set about trying to find a new purpose for one lovingly crafted artisan product by creating a new one, beer!
Beers originally brewed by Goddards Brewery. Brewed at Crafty Brewing since 2023.

Bottle from Waitrose. Bright gold in colour with a lasting white head and a light to middling fizz. Lemon, white bread, straw and a hint of white pepper. Good balance of bitter, sweet and dry. A very decent bitter actually.

500ml bottle: BB Dec 2021. Drank while preparing the BBQ at home on 17th Apr 2021. It's an amber coloured lager, clean and clear pour, white crust. Semi-sweet bread roll sort of thing with extra maltiness.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from Waitrose Canary Wharf. Pours clear gold with a small, foamy white head. Lightly sweet, pleasant bready pale malts, nips of lemony hops, straw, biscuits. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Nicely balanced finish, further pale bread, crackers, pale grains, hay, nips of grass. Very pleasant beer.

500ml bottle from a local Waitrose: BB Feb 2022. Drank at home on 12th Mar 2021. Very pale light golden body, clean and clear; thin, wispy and weak white head. Dough in the nose and a malty ester or two, taste is also bread malty first, some light hop bitterness arrives mid-sip. Pleasant enough, without getting me too excited.

500ml bottle on 8th November 2020 from Waitrose, Holloway Road. Pours crystal clear amber with shallow, loose off-white foam that quickly disappears without a trace. Malty and pungent aroma. Bittersweet in-mouth with caramel malt, leafy hops and tangy fruits. The finish remains fruity only to become increasingly bitter on the upper rear palate. Zingy mouthfeel and a mmedium body.

[50cl bottle from Waitrose, Bracknell.] A bright amber pour with gentle carbonation and a thin white head; grainy aroma; citrusy to start, with a definite sourdough taste; then a sour and salty finish. Rather good.
