Beer Chips are a brand of thick-cut kettle style chips with alcohol flavours, invented by Brett Stern in around 2005.[1][2] The chips are covered with a heavy coating of sugar, honey, and salt,[3] and are covered in beer.[4] These chips are non-alcoholic as the alcohol is removed during the making. The SouthtownStar reviewed the company's beer, margarita, and bloody mary flavors, which they said were tasty.[5] Beer chips are produced in various flavors, such as buffalo wing, margarita shot, barbecue and pretzel.[6]

The product is distributed in Oregon, California and Texas.[7] In 2010 Stern sold the company to Barrel O’ Fun for an undisclosed sum of money.[8]
