This is the home some of the best craft beer in Charlotte. At Olde Meck, it is obvious that the focus is on quality as it is evident in every brew. You won't find more than 4 or 5 beers on draft but they are all tasty. Each one is served in the appropriate drinking vessel for that variety of beer. "Copper" is the signature beer and you'll find it not only here but also at many bars around town.
The atmosphere at the brewery is heavily influenced by German beer halls. While it does its best to be true to the German style, it's a bit bland if you ask me. I prefer the cozy and lively NoDa or Birdsong when it comes to the design. Of note, they are building a whole new location that should be opening soon. Very excited to see that!
There are some food options including bratwurst and pretzels. They stay true to the German influence in the menu. The brats are really good, and the other food is pretty average. It is a plus that they are able to offer food, as some other local breweries are not.
They offer free tours throughout the day, which is a really nice touch as well. There are also lots of events that take place at the brewery which really brings out the community in full force! Bottom line, Olde Meck is the stalwart brewery in the QC!
