At Resident Culture, we have a genuine appreciation for assertive, hop-forward styles and strive to accentuate the character and quality of our farmers' harvest. The concepts of subtlety and nuance are heralded, particularly with regards to our lager beer, mixed culture and spontaneous offerings. Our coolship program reminds us daily of our obsession with a hyper sense of place that inspired us to transform an old family warehouse into a space that, first and foremost, serves our neighbors. We take our beer seriously, but most importantly, we value the relationships and family culture we have cultivated at the brewery. We are proud to have an incredibly tight-knit crew, all of whom play an important role in creating the brewery we have become. At the end of the day, it's beer that we make, but it's our community and the taking care of each other that makes the foundation we're built upon.

This is on my usual Charlotte rotation. I usually hit this place at opening on Sunday or during the week, on Sundays there are rotating food trucks. Great beer selection, cans and bottles to go as well as crowlers. I will say releases usually sell out within a few days and they do not crowler anything they can. Super friendly staff and plenty of parking during the times I have been.

Felt like a factory, beers were just okay. Looks like they draw a decent crowd on the weekend for the size of the place.

Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and had a flight, all the beers were very good, staff knowledgeable and friendly, very laid back vibe. Good selection on tap.

Nice looking place with a good sized taproom. The selection was pretty good and the people there were also very knowledgeable. The parking lot was full yet the place wasn't so I'm not sure how that'd possible unless there was something going on there that I wasn't aware of. Overall its a nice place and worth checking out.

Super nice place on inside and outside--tons of $$$ behind it clearly
Haze kings. Solid beer but they are a little proud of themselves. Does not have the neighborhood feel of other places and a little too snooty.Everyone there a bit too much the "seen and be seen" beer crowd. Beer is good but go to Legion, Robot, Hyde, OMB

Really cool brewery with lots to see and drink. They offer taps directly from the barrel. Really cool option I have never seen. The selection was awesome and had a flavor for every beer drinker. The IPAs and sours were damn good and took some to go.

New brewery in Plaza Midwood. Wow, what a beautiful place! Huge!
Went for the first time on friends/family night. Large taproom. There is a barrel room to the side that will be for private parties, etc, but that hadn't been quite finished when I was there. But the best part is they are going to have a coolship. I don't know of anywhere near Charlotte that has one. So nice!
Beers were outstanding. I think there were about 8 on tap for the opening. Most places when they first open, have a great space, but crap beer. Not at RC! The whole thing was well done. Tropes, the brewmaster, is making sure the whole thing is top notch.
At the moment, I could see the parking being the only hiccup. There isn't a lot on property, but there is a public parking across the street and down the road a touch. I'd recommend Ubering, if you can. Less headaches.
Great job RC. Can't wait to visit often.
