Entities tied to OMB sold about 8 acres surrounding the brewery’s biergarten and manufacturing operation on Yancey Road. That property, wedged between Yancey Road, South Tryon Street and East Peterson Drive, was acquired by a joint venture formed by Charlotte developer White Point Partners and local real estate investment firm Cameron Property Co.

The deal closed on Feb. 11 in four transactions totaling $31.7 million, according to Mecklenburg County real estate records.
