If it didn't warm up on the way home go ahead and tap it. Yes you need to keep the co2 turned on when a keg is tapped.

You should let it sit a couple hours to settle.

Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed.
Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery
and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might
be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself,
"It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than
be selfish and worry about my liver."
