A Charlotte Tradition

In the heart of Charlotte, the Olde Mecklenburg Brewery (OMB) has earned its place as a cornerstone of the city’s craft beer culture. Established in 2009, OMB proudly holds the title of Charlotte’s original brewery and continues to be a favorite destination for locals and visitors alike. Known for its commitment to time-honored brewing traditions, premium ingredients, and a welcoming community vibe, OMB sets the standard in Charlotte’s thriving beer scene.

Time-Honored Brewing, Modern Excellence

At OMB, beer is crafted with care and purpose. Following the 500-year-old German purity law known as the Reinheitsgebot, each brew is made with only four natural ingredients—water, malt, hops, and yeast. The result is clean, flavorful beer with no shortcuts and no compromise. Popular year-round offerings include the Copper Altbier, a smooth and full-bodied classic; Captain Jack Pilsner, crisp and refreshing; and a rotation of seasonal specialties like the beloved Yule Bock during the holidays.

One of the Southeast’s Largest Beer Gardens

OMB’s sprawling 8-acre beer garden is a true retreat within the city. Shaded by trees and filled with picnic tables, open green space, and fire pits, it provides the perfect backdrop for gatherings of all kinds. Families, groups of friends, and even four-legged companions are welcome, creating an atmosphere where everyone can enjoy Charlotte’s beautiful weather alongside great beer and food.

Authentic Flavors and Lively Events

Inside the brewery, guests can enjoy a German-inspired menu designed to complement OMB’s beer. From freshly baked pretzels and bratwurst to schnitzel and hearty sandwiches, the pub delivers authentic flavors with every plate. Throughout the year, OMB brings the community together with special events such as Mecktoberfest, live music weekends, and seasonal celebrations, making it a hub of fun and tradition.

Sustainability and Community Spirit

OMB is more than just a brewery—it’s a neighbor invested in Charlotte. The brewery actively supports local organizations and embraces environmentally responsible practices, including energy-efficient brewing and sustainable operations, ensuring it makes a positive impact on both the community and the environment.
