Greenport Harbor Brewing Co. tapped the kegs at its much-anticipated Peconic tasting room and brewery Friday afternoon.

The parking lot might not have been completely paved yet and the bathrooms still need a few finishing touches, but that did not stop a healthy rainy Independence Day turnout.

On tap for opening day were the brewery’s Harbor Ale, Black Duck Porter, Summer Ale, Otherside IPA and Citrus IPA.
