Beer Nuts
103 North Robinson Street, Bloomington, IL 61701
Food & Beverage
Bloomington, Illinois is the only city in the world where Beer Nuts are made!
The Beer Nuts secret family recipe has its roots smack-dab in the middle of the good ol’ US of A.
Russell Shirk packaged peanuts and other specialty nuts for the family restaurant/confectionary and two local liquor stores. With a catchy name and smart distribution, word got out and over a half-century later, the Shirks are still selling ’em across the land. In fact, they still produce all BEER NUTS products at their 100,000 square-foot facility in Bloomington.
The unique sweet & salty taste continues to be beer’s best match.
Store has closed. Beer Nuts are available for purchase online and from select grocery stores.
