In addition to local craft beers, Alabama Peanut Co. offers domestic beers, canned wine and THC CBD beverages.

And of course, there are countless varieties of peanuts to choose from at the site.

One of America’s last surviving peanut merchants, the Alabama Peanut Co. and its predecessors have called Morris Avenue home since 1907. Next to Vulcan and Civil Rights history sites, the Alabama Peanut Co. should be on every visitor’s bucket list.

That’s something to toast to!
