Food scene

A fun place to visit in downtown Greensboro that offers great food and an array of brews. 706-920-1177 Nathan McGarity’s vision became a reality along with co-owner and masterbrewer Taylor Lamm, they opened OBC in a 6,000-square-foot, circa-1917 mill warehouse that also served as a bottling plant for the long-gone Chero-Cola in the 1930s. Leaving much of its history intact, the brewery’s most interesting features highlight its historic past. Still visible, you’ll notice a faded, hand-painted Chero-Cola sign on the building’s exterior and a salvaged 120-year-old Schofield Iron Works boiler door mounted to a crumbling brick wall from the original warehouse structure, which is now being used as the outdoor patio area for guests and bands. With modern enhancements, such as new concrete floors and exposed metal beams, the over 100 year old mill has been given new life. This transformed facility is home to 15 steel brewing tanks that can hold up to 500 gallons of beer. There’s also a tasting room—OBC offers public tours—and a 3,600-square-foot event space with a floor-to-ceiling glass-curtain wall that opens to an outdoor patio.
