Been trying to think of one, but I can imagine having a beer anywhere. Maybe underwater?

I'm imagining what this one looks like and it's very cool! [emoji6]
Very nice. Really like the grain in the bar. Type of wood?

Few years old and has been "well loved" in that time. Built this when I overhauled our basement, which, given the current situation, has turned into our bar, office, school, movie theatre, sports center, greenhouse, laundry mat, and gym.
Very, very nice. Kudos to you.
Nice top. What was used epoxy?
After several weekends in lock-down at home, I'm finally done with my basement bar! For those interested in the details, I have a build thread here:

Very, very nice. However, was the stool on the left photo shopped? I ask as part of the top seat is missing (or blended into the face of the bar).
Ha! I hadn't noticed that. There's no photoshopping. There is a light directly above the bar and the edge of the bar's shadow on the stool falls exactly in line with a cedar board in that photo.
I still have some work to do, but here's mine so far. Six tap home built tower with capacity for eight kegs in the two Komos kegerators.

Looks great. Any specific kind of butcher block that you got that is better suited for having that drip tray on it? Or maybe a type of finish that you put on the top that keeps it conditioned?
Cheers!
I just used Hardwood Reflections Unfinished Birch butcher block from Home Depot, but I finished it with Rubio Monocoat. It's a plant-based oil that bonds to the wood fibers to create a (food safe) waterproof seal. I made sure that I finished both sides as well as around all the cutouts.
One thing to bear in mind is that you really need a router with a good bit to cut holes in butcher block. A jigsaw doesn't do a good job. A circular saw is fine for cutting the block down to size, but it's a pain for cutouts. If you're not experienced with working butcher block (like me), I'd also recommend making a template out of MDF first and then use a router bit with a guide bearing to cut out in the shape of the template. Here's some pictures from my build:
