Goldfinger Brewing Company

Goldfinger Brewing Company: A Lager beer brewery and taproom located in Downers Grove, Illinois.

We only brew lager beer.

The Goldfinger Brewing Company is a lager focused microbrewery located in Downers Grove, two blocks northwest of the Fairview Metra station.

The Goldfinger family knows beer! From the mid-1800s till the early 1900s, Goldfingers across Central Europe sold hops, malted barley, and crafted beers on brewing equipment that they designed and manufactured. At their St. Philip Street brewery and pub in Krakow, in a bygone era, locals would exclaim, “na Zdrowie!” as they clinked together mugs filled with their crisp brews.

Today, the robust brewing tradition of our ancestors is reborn at Goldfinger Brewing Company of Downers Grove, Illinois. Combining traditional European methods with American creativity and innovation, a genuine descendant of the Goldfingers crafts only the most aromatic and deliciously flavorful lager style beers. Made with the finest raw materials and persevering care, Goldfinger Brewing Company promises beers of the highest quality and subtle complexity.

Let’s raise a toast to our hard working production crew! Scorching heat, dense wildfire smoke, and ramping up production doesn’t prevent our crew from showing up and making the best lager we can out of our Downers Grove facility. Every drop of Goldfinger lager you’ve tasted is brewed by hand, by us, with love. Special shout out to Mother Nature for the welcomed reprieve from the oppressive heat. It’s a garage doors open kind of day. ... See MoreSee Less

A lager designed to represent the lagers that Marcus Goldfinger was making in the late 19th century. We combined Pilsner and Vienna malts to provide a depth of honey and lightly toasted malt character. We combined three classic Polish hop varieties that provide a unique flavor profile of herbs, spices, and flowers. The hop contribution leans more toward the aroma side as this beer’s bitterness is tapered and serves as a welcome interruption of the rich malt character, inviting sip after sip. Enjoy this beer in all of its unfiltered glory. Drink this limited release beer while you can. Speaking of cans, it is available both by the glass and in cans in the taproom only. We open at 3pm today. #seeyoulager ... See MoreSee Less
