Volfas Engelman (Vilnius outlet) is a brewery in Naujamiestis, Vilnius.
Volfas Engelman has brewed in Kaunas since 1853; the Pilsner and Rinktinis pours show up on most Vilnius pub menus and at Halės Turgus bistro counters.

Address: Pylimo g. 60, Vilnius
The Šv. Stepono Šnekutis is the second-original of the chain, pouring 30-plus Lithuanian small-brewery taps including farmhouse and unfiltered styles.
