Now pouring at select Piggly Wiggly Birmingham stores
A New Kind of Chill for the Magic City
Move over hard seltzers—hemp-derived THC drinks have landed in Birmingham, and they’re redefining what it means to “grab a cold one.” Piggly Wiggly Birmingham is proud to be one of the first mainstream grocers in Alabama to stock a carefully curated lineup of lab-tested, federally legal beverages that deliver feel-good vibes without the alcohol (or the next-day regrets).
According to recent industry coverage, beverages infused with hemp-derived THC are eating into traditional beer and wine sales nationwide as consumers seek lighter, wellness-minded options. With nearly half of American adults planning to dial down their alcohol intake this year, the timing couldn’t be better for a fridge refresh.

How to Sip Responsibly
- Start Low, Go Slow: Begin with half a can if you’re new to THC. Wait 30 minutes before deciding on a second.
- Keep It 21+: These products are for adults only—please store them out of children’s reach.
- No Mixing & Driving: Even though it’s hemp-derived, THC can impair reaction time. Plan for a rideshare or designated driver.
- Hydrate & Snack: Just like any social beverage, water and good eats keep the good times rolling.
