Beale Street Smoke Shop

Since July 1, 2026, when the last Department of Agriculture legacy licenses expired, hemp retail runs entirely under T.C.A. Title 57 chapter 7. It is an offense under 57-7-114 to sell hemp or a hemp-derived cannabinoid product with a total THC or total theoretical THC content above three-tenths of one percent, computed as delta-9 plus 0.877 times THCA, which ends flower, pre-rolls and concentrates. TABC-licensed 21-and-over retail — roughly 1,300 licensees — still sells edibles at 15 mg per serving, tinctures, beverages and 500 mg cartridges. No direct-to-consumer shipping into the state.

Separately, the federal hemp definition changes on November 12, 2026, when total THC replaces delta-9 as the test and finished products are capped at 0.4 mg of total THC per container. That applies nationwide regardless of state law.
