Who doesn't love playing games this way? That's what makes games even more fun to certain people! You start to play a game you know how to play well but you're playing it like you've never played it before after two glasses in. And having games at your bar brings the patrons right in!

Through the ages, beer has seen many changes from Meade and Guinness, to prohibition and craft brews.

Ah, red wine. The sound of popping open a cork or unscrewing the cap is music to our ears. But nothing beats the sight of someone pouring you a glass of wine that you've been dying for from a very stressful week.

To kick off my 2018 I decided to do a dry January. This seems to be increasingly popular as I quickly learned that two of my close and heavy drinking friends decided to partake as well. I have gone dry before so not drinking for one month was a breeze.

Reasons You Need a Wine Fridge
Wine can make you do almost anything, such as make you believe in horoscopes. Wine can also cure your emotional concerns pretty much on a whim, better than any pep talk ever spewed. It's also probably the only beneficial alcoholic beverage around, in addition to the other more unique qualities it may or may not behold; ie bathing in wine. Still, respecting your wine is just as important as drinking it (and finding more, wink-wink). On a serious note, everyday standard fridges normally can't fit one wine bottle, let alone multiple, and they tend to have an internal temperature range that fluctuates and doesn't maintain the right level of humidity, neither of which are any good for storing your wine. Either you're pulling out a bottle of red from the fridge, which takes an added second of wiggling and frustration, only to find it's either gone bad or just doesn't taste the same.
