My experiences with home brews seem to have only ever been with the "rugged and buggered, aussie battler" types who always seem to have too many days at the end of their money, buy crap old VN's and Falcons because they are cheap, then spend (not much good money after bad keeping the clunkers on the road (in a dangerous state of repair). ... If ya can't afford to go down to the local IGA and buy a few can/s or stubbies/slab or whatever when on special; don't drink at all and chuck the balance into your super, cause you are gunna need it.
