According to Weaver and Lawton (2010: 2), tourism is the conclusion of every interactions between tourists, suppliers, government and residents of the host country, and the environment of the host country that possess a role on the effort of entertaining every visitors of the host country. Tourism industry is developing in accordance to the demand of the consumers, which is still increasing until now. Tourism industry is divided into many divisions such as accommodation, food and beverage, transport and storage, cultural and recreational services, and etc. Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs according to Robbins and Judge (2013: 237): Hypothesized that within every human being, there exists a hierarchy of five needs, which are physiological needs, safety needs, social needs, esteem needs, and self-actualization needs. According to Robbins and Judge (2013: 237), every human possess five needs which is bodily needs, physical and emotional safety needs, social relationship needs, internal and external state needs, and self development needs. Every human have to fulfill their needs such as hunger, shelter, protection, belongingness, recognition, self-fulfillment, and etc. By fulfilling these needs, a human will have a decent life. Maybe 1 it will be difficult for a human to fulfill all of the needs, but more needs fulfilled will bring more satisfaction for the human. Tourism industry has the ability to fulfill all of the needs, physiological needs can be fulfilled because foods, drinks and accommodation are considered as products of tourism industry. Safety needs such as employment can also be fulfilled because tourism industry require a lot of employees. For social needs, esteem needs and self-actualization needs that require an interaction between individuals in order to be fulfilled, tourism industry may also contribute by providing a place for people to interact such as restaurant and bar.

Benefit of owning a beer bar according to Shelton (2009: 8): Another benefit to owning a beer bar or beerpub is that men and younger adults drink beer more often than any other alcoholic beverage, which cantranslate into a profitable business for you. HOGSBARREL is a business with the concept of beer bar that is located in the area of Pantai Indah Kapuk at Penjaringan District. The target market of HOGSBARREL are men and younger adults that are looking for a perfect place for them to enjoy beer. The business plan of HOGSBARREL is created from the fact that beer is very popular among young and middle-aged people, which means the market demanded a place where they can enjoy the beer while having a good conversation with friends on their free time. There are three options for people who are looking for a place where they can enjoy their beer in Pantai Indah Kapuk. The first option is going to a restaurant that has beer as one of their product, but usually the price is relatively high and the option is very 6 limited. The second option is going to a small scale club that also has beer as one of their product, but the place is very noisy with the big scale sound system that makes it hard to have a conversation, and the price of beer is normal.
