Ghost Harbor Brewing Company (Craft Beer & Brewery in Elizabeth City NC)

Ghost Harbor Brewing Company in Elizabeth City, North Carolina is the town’s very first microbrewery, and it wears that fact like a badge of honour. The place is built on meticulous attention to detail, so every pint feels less like a drink and more like a narrated adventure.
