Tom's Beer Nuts, est. 2026 — two squirrels cheersing beers 🐿️ First batch · Thu 15 Oct → Hand roasted · Australian grown · Small batch

A small
nut business.

Say "beer nuts" to most Aussies and they'll picture the oily, salty, skin-on ones. Love them or not, they're there to make you thirsty and sell beer. So I made the beer nut I actually wanted: dry roasted, small batch, and good enough to eat on its own. These are Tom's Beer Nuts.

The story

Someone said
I couldn't.

It started as a bet at the kitchen table. A good peanut recipe, a claim that I'd never get it off the ground, and a stubborn streak that wouldn't let that stand.

So we did it properly — registered, licensed, and roasting in small batches with 100% Australian grown peanuts, and sourcing Australian ingredients wherever we can.

We're not trying to take over the world. You won't find us on a supermarket shelf — not now, not ever. This is a small family business, growing one batch, one flavour, and one market at a time, to see how far it goes. One day we'd love to sell online too. For now, this website is just here to explain who we are and what it's all about.

What we make

The flavours.

We're launching with The Original, plus a limited supply of Very Very Low Gluten. The rest are on their way.

Available now

The Original Dry Roast

Where it all started. Simple, honest, and the reason this whole thing exists in the first place — good peanuts, roasted low and slow, salted just right.

Limited supply

Very Very Low Gluten Original

Same recipe everyone already loves, quietly re-worked to keep the gluten down to a rounding error. Still can't call it "gluten free" until a lab signs off — so for now, take our word and our best effort.

Coming soon

Curry Nuts

Warm, savoury, and a little bit addictive. A proper curry spice blend that turns a handful of nuts into a genuine snack event.

Honey & Chilli Nuts 🔥

Sweet first, heat second, and then you're reaching straight back into the bag. The current favourite around here — for now.

Very Very Spicy Honey Nuts 🔥🔥🔥

For the ones who thought the regular Honey & Chilli was a bit soft. This is Jack's recipe, Jack's heat level, and entirely Jack's fault. Proceed with a drink nearby.

In development

Chocolate Nuts

Not chocolate-coated — a dry cocoa dusting, roasted right onto the nut. Verdict so far: the kids love them, Tom's wife is not yet convinced. Recipe still being tweaked. Watch this space.

⚠ All flavours contain peanuts. Obviously. Full ingredients and allergen info are printed on every bag.

For now, come say g'day.

No online shop just yet — for now, the only way to get a bag is in person. One day we'd love to ship across Australia. Until then, come find us.
