Well I've been wanting to do this for some time and finally have the opportunity to do so. I havnt been brewing much lately due to really unsanitary conditions in my basement area so I've finally decided to do a full remodel on my bar area. So without futher ado, here are the before pics and the conceptual model:

So originally my bar area was closed into a storage area that has no heat or anything:



You can see in this picture the old door that led up into the garage:



So this is what I did so far:

I blew out the wall that separated the bar and storage area from the main portion of the basement


Now you can see right into the bar area

You can see all the remnants of the original wall that was there (I hate metal studs with a passion!!!)



Framed in the new door area and the sliding door that will be the access for the new storage area
(Yes the door is hung upside down... I had to cut 1/2 inch off the door on both sides and as I was installing it I busted the post side of the wood forcing me to install it like that... I think it gives it character)


And here is the view out into the basement so now my bar patrons can sit at the bar or on the couch and watch the big screen. (I also have a Projector in the works as well.)

Here is the conceptual model shots that It should look like once I'm done...





So yea thats the goal... the only problem with this whole build is the ceiling because as it stands right now this is a very low hung basment at 6' 9" from floor to rafter... Take away 1.5" due to the floor and drywall ceiling going in, and that puts me at 6' 7.5"
Thank God I don't have any uber tall friends...

Wish me luck guys.

Looks like a fun ass project bro! Good work so far. Which beers do you have on tap if any?

Oh that is really freakin sweet!

As of right now I have an American Stout, Ruination IIPA Clone, Oktoberfest, and a Summer Wheat that I'm particularly proud of...

Coming up are two EPA's, a Barley Wine, and a Dopplebock I have yet to brew...

Its going to be nice when I'm done... I just wish I could afford to finish off the entire basement... Oh well...

you need to make a fold down beer pong table, and give me your paypal so i can get some more of that brew you sent me.

Never tried any of those brews, but i'd definitely be interested in tryin a new beer. Can any of these be bought in stores? I normally drink the normal american bud light myself, but really love a good yuengling.

Hella' nice man cave.
