Honomobar is the Shipping Container Bar That Can Go Where You Go

We loved it when Honomobo debuted its sleek, ultra-modern line of shipping container homes. Luckily for us, the Canadian company didn’t stop there. Brace yourselves: the Honomobar is coming.

Honomobo changed the modular housing game with its series of dwellings that completely rethought what a shipping container could be. The designs thoughtfully incorporate materials to enhance the structure, not hide it, and the finishes result in a quality, contemporary home that is also affordable.

Building on the foundation of its foundation-less homes, Honomobo has gone one step and created a shipping container bar. Honomobar is created from a single recycled shipping container and polished with the brandsignature style.

The bars, measuring just 100 square feet, can be placed anywhere. No, really — the display model was hauled up the side of a snowy mountain for an afternoon of ‘boarding and beers.

From poolside in your backyard to lakeside at your cabin, Honomobars go everywhere you do. Because these structures don’t need a foundation, you aren’t limited bywhere they can be placed. They are delivered in about four to six weeks and are ready to use so you can get the party started right away.

The bar layout is pretty basic. There are two back walls, a door, and an L-shaped counter. There are floating shelves on the back wall for displaying and storing bottles and glasses. This basic arrangement is decked out in sleek touches that create the feeling of a high-end, exclusive bar.

The exposed shipping container walls are painted black, which is offset by the light wood, Canadian fir butcher block countertop. While no plumbing or electrical is included, there is a junction box that allows for the bar to be hooked up to an extension cord (provided, of course, you set up the Honomobar close enough to a source). The entire structure is able to be closed up when not in use thanks to an aluminum roll shutter. Hydraulic lifting arms allow the bar window to easily be opened, turning it into a canopy for the bartop.

Honomobo is currently taking limited orders for 2018, so get yours in now and have your Honomobar delivered in time for an epic Memorial Day weekend.

The 12 best Connecticut cigars I’ve tried and tested in 2024
Best Connecticut cigars up close and personal

Connecticut cigars are the clear winner for smoking on a hot summer day, in the morning with some coffee, or when you just don't want a swift kick in the teeth (of pepper). There's no shortage of options, either. Connecticut shade wrappers are one of the most prevalent in the world of cigars, and it's certainly the most common natural shade. Maduro is also popular, but the two wrapper types couldn't be any more different. Connecticut wrappers, and by proxy Connecticut cigars, are typically mild to medium in strength and brimming with creamy, smooth flavors. They're composed of tobacco leaves grown in the Connecticut River Valley in the United States -- which is where the name Connecticut comes from. Consistent and flavorful, some of the best beginner-friendly cigars are Connecticut-wrapped, but you should never sell them short. A Connecticut shade cigar can be just as refined, elegant, and premium as any other. If you know where to look, you may even find some of your favorite blends in the category across a wide range of brands and cigar makers.

I'm about to take you on a magical, doughy, and delicious trek through the broad range of Connecticut cigars. In short, here are the best Connecticut cigars tried and tested by a genuine enthusiast of the craft: yours truly.
The best Connecticut cigars I've tried and tested
While the Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper is considered a Connecticut shade, I did my best to steer clear of recommending them for this list. They're better classified as a Maduro shade or darker cigar. That doesn't mean you should avoid them, quite the contrary. But for this list, I wanted to stick to smooth, relaxing smokes that are strong on flavor but not quite so strong on pepper and spice. I also tried not to choose a lot of repeats. If you see your favorite cigar missing, that might be because it was recommended on another list or it just didn't make the cut. If you have any recommendations of your own, I'm always available through social media or email. Without further ado, let's get this thing started.

The era of password sharing is slowly but surely coming to an end. Netflix has already begun cracking down on people sharing passwords across households, and now, other streaming services are following suit. Before 2024 is over, Disney Plus password sharing will be a thing of the past.

Disney's streaming services are now preparing to crack down on those who are sharing passwords, and the consequences for doing so could be severe. Users across Hulu, Disney Plus, and ESPN Plus will be warned about password sharing, and if they don't Disney CEO Bob Iger even laid out a timeline for when the crackdown will start, although he didn't get into too many specifics.
