Job Description

DISHWASHER — THE OLDE MECKLENBURG BREWERY

Keep the kitchen running. Own your station.

Reports To: Executive Chef 

Location: Ballantyne 

Position Type: Hourly

ABOUT OMB

The Olde Mecklenburg Brewery (OMB) is one of Charlotte's premier destinations for craft beer. Founded in 2009, OMB brews exclusively to the German Purity Law of 1516 — Reinheitsgebot — which requires every beer be made with only four ingredients: water, barley, hops, and yeast. That standard of tradition and authenticity runs through everything we do.

Our original location sits in Charlotte's Lower South End (LoSo) and features a state-of-the-art production facility, a full-service restaurant, and a one-acre biergarten. In Spring 2024, we expanded with a second location in Ballantyne — a two-story, 14,000-square-foot restaurant and biergarten built to host even more of our community. Our beers are distributed across North Carolina through an independent wholesaler network.

OMB is proud of its community involvement and its place in Charlotte's beer scene — an iconic representation of German brewing tradition in the South.
