Hello everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself to the group. I recently completed a big project turning our basement into a whiskey bar/mancave. It was quite the endeavor, but we’re almost finished with a few final touches and adding more shelves for our whiskey collection. Check out the before and after photos. Cheers!
Wow, looking fantastic! Keep it up!

I’m on my way. Could you share the address with me? 😁
Wow, this is amazing!!! 👏🏼

I’m a big fan of all the different types of bourbon!
I appreciate your thanks! One can never have too many choices, am I right?!
I really like… the darker tones are amazing.

That’s really cool 👍🥃
Thank you!
Wow, you all really outdid yourselves! The work is fantastic! Seems like a blast!
Coles, thanks! It was both frustrating and fun, but we definitely enjoy it now. Cheers to that!
That looks incredible! 👏
Hey, thanks a lot! Cheers to you!
Wow, that looks fantastic! My husband made a smaller version with fewer details too. He used black metal pipes for shelves and bar legs.
Thank you so much!!
Impressive! Do you have teenagers by any chance?
😂… Yes, I did, but they’re away at college. The real troublemakers now are my 11 and 7 year old sons who act like they own the place.
Hey man, that looks absolutely fantastic! Awesome job
Thanks a lot! Here’s to you!
Where are you? I’m thinking of calling in sick and heading over!
Hey , do you like whiskey?
Is into pool as well
Hey, great stuff. I write reviews on whiskey and other things, but I’m terrible at pool 😂 Feel free to follow me if you’re interested. I aim to post content weekly. Cheers to you!
The dropped ceiling is top-notch. Mind sharing the name of the product?
I need to double check where the banks are. It’s actually from Lowe’s and it’s a thin plastic tile.
Hey , thanks for the suggestion. I’d love more details. I was thinking about a dropped ceiling for my basement, but they usually look too office-like. This one has some texture and character. I’m a fan!
Hey , have you checked out Amazon for some awesome decorative drop tiles? We saw a bunch and almost decided on one.
Nice work!
Thank you so much, !
Your challenge coins in the bar are looking great!
Hey , thanks a lot!
Incredible!
I can’t believe how much character this space has now. You really did an awesome job! <3
I appreciate your kindness! Here’s to you, cheers!
Wow, this is amazing!
Hey, thanks ! Cheers!

Happy to come across another bourbon enthusiast here. That Willett bottle with the purple foil is awesome!
Hey , thanks a bunch! If you’re a fan of whiskey or bourbon, feel free to give me a follow. I enjoy sharing my reviews and more. Cheers!

Seems like a lot of effort went into this, looks like a blast!
Thank you !
Great job! What time is the party starting?
You’re so funny!
Space is so cool!
Thank you !
Hey, are you a fan of whiskey? Just kidding haha
Feeling just a tad silly 🤣
Your basement before looks better than my own home.
You did a fantastic job, it looks amazing. Any former alcoholic should steer clear of your place. 🤣
Haha, for sure 😂
Awesome area

Hey, can I get your address? My buddy is curious 😂
Sending cheers your way!
Lovely!
Expressing gratitude for your kindness!
Oh my goodness! The change is amazing! It looks fantastic! Great job!
Hey , thank you so much!! ☺️
The floors look absolutely stunning
I appreciate your help!
Are the floors LVP? What is the brand/color?
I need to check with my wife, but these are peel and stick, perfect for basement floors that are not even. We purchased them at Lowe’s.
Wow, they look INCREDIBLE!! I’m going to check out Lowe’s website. The entire project is so well-executed – you must be really proud of your work!
Thanks for the lovely words. It was a dream I held onto during my 25 years in the military. I was finally able to make it a reality. Thank you!!
I’ll see if I can track down the brand for you!
I see Laphroaig…my hubby enjoys Isle whiskeys, particularly Laphroaig. I don’t mean to boast, but we have a small piece of land at the distillery haha, it came with a bottle as a bonus. Officially, we’re Lord and Lady
You really made the most of that opportunity. That’s fantastic! Well, my dear, both you and your husband have excellent taste!
Goes full Ron Swanson when it comes to Lagavulin, but he’s frugal so he never treats himself to it. Whenever someone asks for gift suggestions for him, I jokingly recommend Lagavulin 16, haha
You are truly a hero. A real whiskey enthusiast!
Oh my goodness, this is incredible! I can’t imagine being anywhere else in the house!
Hey , I appreciate you!
Hey, did John Taffer consult with you? You did a great job!
Cheers !
Cheers to you ! The pint is just right.
Great job! Absolutely stunning!
