Plenty in Aus that do.Yeah I learned most of what I know from old Newfies and I have no interest in stilling so it never built on it.
On my travels checking people's houses I find more distillation setups than HB beer setups but always a great talking point for me.
Usually I'll spy an old bucket fermentor in the garage or glass Demijons and I'll just say oh you do a bit of hombrewing aye?
