Brewery Profile

Legion Brewing West Morehead

In Charlotte’s active brewery landscape, this West Morehead taproom gives visitors a production-site view rather than a room separated from the brewing work. Open since fall 2021, the brewery occupies the converted former Mitchum Potato Chip factory in West Charlotte, so the building itself is part of the visit. Inside, the hot side of the brewing equipment is visible from the taproom, making the brewing process part of the setting while guests order and sit nearby. That layout gives the space a practical, working-brewery feel: tanks and brewing infrastructure are not hidden away, and the taproom experience is tied to the facility’s role in Legion’s wider North Carolina distribution network.

Travelers exploring breweries in Charlotte often look for more than a quick pint; many seek places where the production side, food, and neighborhood context all help define the stop. Legion Brewing West Morehead fits that kind of itinerary by combining an urban brewery setting with visible brewing activity and casual food service. Specific daily beers are best confirmed at the taproom, since the available pours can change and no single beer list should be assumed in advance. The experience is less about a fixed landmark beer and more about seeing a Charlotte brewery site in operation while spending time in a converted industrial building.

For planning purposes, the known amenities are straightforward. The site has a dedicated Biergarten, giving visitors an outdoor option when conditions allow, and the food program includes brick oven pizzas along with shareable quick bites. That makes it workable for groups who want something more substantial than snacks but still informal. Visitors interested in the brewing setup may prefer to sit or stand where the visible hot-side equipment can be viewed from the taproom. Because beer availability, hours, and service details can vary, the taproom is the place to confirm the day’s pours and any current visit information before settling in.

The Legion Brewing West Morehead facility, operational since the Fall of 2021, is housed within the converted structure of the former Mitchum Potato Chip factory in West Charlotte. This location integrates the brewing process directly into the taproom experience, positioning the hot side of the brewing equipment visibly for patrons. The site features a dedicated Biergarten and offers brick oven pizzas alongside a menu focused on shareable quick bites. Its production capacity serves the local area and contributes to the brewery's overall distribution network within North Carolina.
