What Type Of Beer Clock Is Best For A Home Bar?

There are many types of clocks. So the one you choose for your home bar will be determined by taste or your type of bar.

You may find a clock you fall in love with and decide it is the one. Or you may look for a clock based on your bar theme.

A funny clock may fit the bill, or a personalised one that carries a bar slogan such as ‘Beer O’clock’. May be a clock with your bars name on it.

A bar clock can become part of all those bar related signs you have, but it tells the time too.

Whatever you desire in a clock, there will be one that will suit your home bar.

Luminous Beer Clock For The Home Bar

A luminous clock could be a fun clock to have in a home bar. Simple design with large numbers that glow.

The clock is made of wood with a black face and off white numbers during the day. The clock absorbs light energy through the day and then lights up during the evening.

The amount of time it lights of a night will depend on the amount of light energy it absorbs. So where it is placed may be a factor for this, the lighter the area the more energy it will absorb.

Also if your home bar is brightly lite during the evening, then it may not work effectively. But who wants bright lights in their home bar.

Branded Home Bar Clock

Another cool clock for a home bar is a branded clock. Obviously this one is a Guinness brand clock. However you can get many branded clocks that reflect your favourite drink.

This one not only has the Guinness log and name on it, but it is designed to look like a crown top (bottle top).

However as nice as it looks, there is one little problem with this clock, although it is easy to correct. For some reason the clock hands are black, so it can be hard to see them against the black background.

If you still love this clock an easy remedy is to use a gold marker pen on the hands. Or gold paint will work, or may be even gold nail varnish.

A silly design fault, but still a great clock.

Note: Changing the colour of the hands may affect warranty.

Sports Theme Home Bar Clock

If you are a sports fan then there are clocks that reflect that. Obviously this one is for the pool fan. Especially ideal if you have a pool table in your home bar.

It includes the whole pool set up with green background, balls as numbers, chalk set at quarters. A triangle and cues for the clock hands.

You can clearly see the numbers as well as the hands, so no painting on this one.

Tiki Bar Wall Clock

A perfect clock for those that have a Tiki style home bar. This clock will fit in perfect with the whole Tiki theme.

Set inside a metal casing with a fun back image which includes ‘Aloha and Tiki Bar’. It also includes the slogan ‘It’s Always Happy Hour’.

However it does only show the four quarter number 3, 6, 9 and 12, but you can see the black clock hands clearly.
