Nuts and beer often go hand-in-hand and Hops and Nuts offers an elevated take on this pairing by creating artisanal nut snacks that are designed to pair with craft beer or wine. In the Classic Craft Sampler Pack, there's a selection of craft roasted peanuts that range from Lager and Lime Peanuts and Chocolate Porter Peanuts to Hatch and Hops IPA Peanuts.
For wine lovers, there are also products like The Tasty Nut Vineyard Red Wine Nuts.
Ordinarily, Hops and Nuts' products can be found in breweries and wineries across the United States but due to closures, it is now focusing on direct-to-consumer sales. Soon, Hops and Nuts will be introducing fresh new packaging and a new name: Sippin Snax.
