Goldfinger Brewing Company

Goldfinger is one of my favorite breweries in Illinois. The taproom is welcoming and thoughtfully designed, modern without feeling cold, and when the weather is nice, the patio is a great place to relax too. What sets Goldfinger apart is their precision. Every beer feels intentional. The brewmaster owner and team are relentlessly focused on doing things the right way, and it shows in every beer. They are not just making great lager. They are quietly brewing some of the best lager in Illinois, maybe even the Midwest without chasing trends or resorting to gimmicks. Goldfinger honors tradition while setting a high standard for what beer can (and should) be.

Stopped up with a Group & discovered the Paradise of Beers. Tried four different beers and each had a great taste & finish. Went back for some more today because we enjoyed it so much. Great service & hospitality! Tip Jared, he is very knowledgeable!

Love Goldfinger. My spouse and I frequent this brewery regularly. The atmosphere, the staff, the beer- all are phenomenal. From singles to couples, to families with young kids, this is the perfect late afternoon/evening/late night spot for everyone. It's such an all season place, too. Come in the summer, enjoy the outdoor patio, come in the winter and enjoy the cozy indoor vibes. Favorites are the Vienna, Original, and seasonal specials like the Baltic Porter.

From the moment we started working with their team, it was clear they take as much pride in their hospitality as they do in their incredible beer. The quality of their lagers is unmatched—crisp, refreshing, and crafted to perfection. The vibe? Absolutely perfect for any gathering—warm, inviting, and effortlessly cool. Hosting an event here was a breeze, thanks to their attentive staff and well-thought-out space. If you're looking for an outstanding brewery to enjoy a pint or plan an event, Goldfinger Brewery is the place to be!

A hidden gem in Downers Grove! Love the beers and ciders at this local brewery. Really delicious and clear and refreshing beers.

Visited goldfinger today , one of the employees got aggravated that my two year old was being a kid and playing with other kids as they do. He told me to “control” my kid which I was while holding a baby and trying to enjoy a beer. Definitely not kid friendly with the warden hanging around. Probably the last time I come in which makes me upset because I frequently stop in and give them my business.

4 beers on tap. Each one I tasted was done well. Yum. I had the Vienna, Jen had the Chela Chido and Jimmy had the Original. All were really good and the service was excellent. We were on a three brewery crawl so were here a short time. Here’s the breakdown: Excellent beer +1 star; great service +1 star; cool place I’d like to go back to next time I’m in town +3 stars

Outstanding place all around. Friendly and unassumingly knowledgeable staff, excellent beer, great environment inside and out. Best of class.
