About the brewery

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 they designed and manufactured. At their St. Philip Street brewery and pub in Kraków, 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. A true Lager house.
