The legendary sweet and salty bar snack since 1953
The unique sweet and salty taste of these classic peanuts is the perfect companion for a cold beverage. Featuring a distinctive glaze, they have been a beloved bar and party snack for generations.
The brand began in 1937 when Arlo Shirk and his father Edward G. Shirk purchased a small confectionery store in Bloomington, Illinois, and began selling their sweetened peanuts. Officially trademarked as Beer Nuts in 1953, the snack quickly became a legendary bar staple nationwide.
