Beer Nuts
Beer Nuts Brand Snacks originated in the small town of Bloomington, Illinois, USA in 1937. The founder named them "Beer Nuts" because they were the perfect snack to pair with beer. In 1950, the founders took over a confectionery company and expanded the product line to include other nuts, such as cashews and almonds, and developed new flavors. The business grew quickly, and by the 60s, the product is shipped to over 50 states. Today, Beer Nuts Brand Snacks is one of the largest producers of gourmet nuts and snack mixes in the world.
