Stoll & Wolfe Distillery: Lititz, Pennsylvania Rye and Visitor Guide
Updated: Oct 27
Stoll & Wolfe connects a modern Lititz distillery with the knowledge of Dick Stoll, the distiller associated with Pennsylvania's historic Bomberger's operation. Its whiskey story includes locally distilled rye, revived heritage grain and blends with components from elsewhere.
Those categories matter. The modern company is not a continuously operating eighteenth-century distillery, and a blend carrying its name should not automatically be described as entirely distilled in Pennsylvania.

Stoll & Wolfe Distillery: history and development
The modern Stoll & Wolfe venture was established in 2016. Its name honours the relationship between Dick Stoll's distilling experience and the Wolfe family's contemporary business, rather than claiming ownership of every historical Pennsylvania whiskey name.
Stoll's training and career connected the project to the old Bomberger's distillery and to Charles Everett Beam. Stoll died in August 2020. His influence remains part of the recipes and methods described by the company, but he should not be presented as its current living master distiller.
Rosen rye is one strand of this inheritance. The producer describes a grain revival beginning in 2015 and a collaboration linking Kline Farm, Stoll and the modern distillery. Subsequent named releases have explored both that grain and older colonial-style recipes.
People, ownership and identity
The company presents its work through a combination of family business, farming relationships and inherited distilling knowledge. Erik Wolfe appears in the account of the Rosen project, while the 2026 Wolfe & Wilson release is described as a collaboration with distiller Alan Bishop.
That collaboration is a release-specific fact. It does not establish that every Stoll & Wolfe whiskey has the same grain recipe, originating distillery or bottling strength.
How the whiskey is made
The checked Pennsylvania Rye listing specifies a mash of 60% rye, 30% corn and 10% malt. The Rosen single barrel and Wolfe & Wilson use different identities and must be catalogued separately, even though all are associated with the same business.
Sourcing is also explicit. The Straight American Whiskey Blend listing names Indiana and Pennsylvania origins. Its age information is internally inconsistent: the descriptive component ages and the structured age field disagree. This guide therefore reports the confirmed strength but does not publish a single resolved age for that blend.
For visitors comparing labels, a cask-strength rye is not automatically the 90-proof PA Rye. A verified single barrel's strength applies to that barrel, not every future release with a similar front label.
Whiskey range and bottle identities
The details below refer to the named expressions and checked sources, not a promise of current retailer stock. Producer descriptions are separate from personal Whisky Clan reviews.
Expression | Documented specification |
|---|---|
Stoll & Wolfe Pennsylvania Rye, 90 Proof | 45% ABV, 750 ml. The checked shop describes 16 months of maturation; separate from the cask-strength rye. |
Stoll & Wolfe Kline Farm Rosen Rye Single Barrel | 4 years, 53.3% ABV and 750 ml on the checked listing. |
Wolfe & Wilson Straight Colonial Rye Whiskey | 2 years, 50% ABV and 750 ml. A heritage-grain collaboration using rye malt, wheat, rye and oats. |
Stoll & Wolfe Straight American Whiskey Blend | 43% ABV, 750 ml. Indiana and Pennsylvania components; age remains unresolved because the source contradicts itself. |
Release milestones and recognition
The Rosen project and Wolfe & Wilson release show two different ways the business draws on regional heritage. One concerns a revived rye variety; the other a documented colonial recipe interpreted in a modern collaboration.
The PA Rye listing cites a 2018 Ultimate Spirits result, while the blend cites a 2019 result. Those are historical competition statements attached to particular products, not Whisky Clan scores and not proof that every subsequent batch received the same assessment.
Visiting and current practical information
The tasting room is at 35 North Cedar Street in Lititz. The producer advertises retail and tasting access, events and tour booking, with private enquiries handled separately.
Check the current calendar before travelling rather than treating a past event listing as a recurring tour. The linked producer pages are grouped at the bottom of this guide, while the regional recommendations below remain within Whisky Clan.

Frequently asked questions
Is Stoll & Wolfe the original Bomberger’s distillery?
No. It is a modern business with a genuine connection through Dick Stoll’s career and methods, not the same continuously operating historical site.
Is every release distilled in Pennsylvania?
No. The producer explicitly identifies Indiana and Pennsylvania components in its Straight American Whiskey Blend.
What is Rosen rye?
A heritage rye variety used for the documented Kline Farm single-barrel release. Its identity should not be merged with the standard PA Rye.
Can I visit the tasting room?
Yes. Use the producer’s current Lititz tasting-room and tour calendar to arrange a visit.
