New Oberpfalz Brewing Starts Bottling Its Craft Beer

GRIFFITH | A Bavarian-inspired craft brewery in Griffith has started bottling beer, a step up from being a brewpub that only serves its beer on the premises.

New Oberpfalz Brewing opened a German beer hall at 121 E. Main St. earlier this year. The brewery just started bottling its Tremble Baltic Porter, which is available in 22-ounce bombers at the taproom and at Party Liquors, 404 N. Broad St. 

“It’s a great big malty, smokey, dark, rich Baltic Porter,” owner and brewer Dan Lehnerer said. “It’s a true lager Baltic Porter, so lager yeast went into this. It took a month to make it. It’s rich and creamy, a delicious beer.”

The craft brewery brewed about 100 cases, or 1,200 bottles of the beer.
