About OMB

The Olde Mecklenburg Brewery (OMB) is a well-known craft brewery located in Charlotte, North Carolina. Founded in 2009, it has become one of the city's premier destinations for beer enthusiasts, serving high-quality beers brewed in adherence to the German Purity Law, Reinheitsgebot. This law, which dates back to 1516, dictates that beer should be made only from water, barley, hops, and yeast, ensuring that OMB's offerings are both traditional and authentic.

OMB's original location is situated in the Lower South End (LoSo) neighborhood of Charlotte, where the brewery features a state-of-the-art production facility, a restaurant, and an expansive 1-acre biergarten. The brewery is especially known for its lively and family-friendly atmosphere, hosting numerous events and festivals throughout the year. Its beers are distributed across North Carolina through an independent wholesaler network, making them accessible statewide.

In Spring 2024, the brewery expanded by opening a second location in the Ballantyne neighborhood of South Charlotte. This new venue is a significant growth for OMB, featuring a spacious, two-story, 14,000-square-foot restaurant and biergarten, designed to offer even more space for beer lovers to enjoy a wide range of OMB’s craft beers.

OMB is particularly proud of its community involvement and commitment to the craft beer movement, consistently offering high-quality brews that range from traditional German-style lagers to experimental seasonal brews. It is a celebrated part of Charlotte's beer scene and an iconic representation of German brewing traditions in the South.
