Hello all,
I was just wondering how many people are into home brewing?

Is it just men? Are there many women out there?

Does anyone know if anyone has any real figures on this?

Cheers
Andrew

I know two women, then everyone here, so I guess there is one other in Canada.......Nope, don't know

Weeeeeeell, there are other brewing sites on the web, so I'd guess the answer may be surprising. I'm NOT going to suggest the Aust Bureau Of Stats add it as a question in the next census. TAXATION, TAXATION.

These are the people I know who brews

• -Me
  -my next door neighbour,
  -my Sister-in-law's father-in law?
  -A work mate of mine
  -Another mate of mine

Used to brew

• -2 brothers-in-law (trying to coax back)
  -My old neighbour

So there must be a few out there

I know of myself and 12 other brewers and have started 3 others in homebrewing.

Koornang,

I know a few.

* You in Melbourne.
* Me in Melbourne.
* Geoff in Jan Juc (Victoria).
* Three colleagues in Melbourne.
* Bruce in Perth.
* Gavan in Melbourne, who's also got his brother into it.
* My wife's cousin Chris in Melbourne.
* My cousin Tristan in Melbourne.
* And probably a few more who escape me at the moment.

Cheers,

Don't forget the 140 of us registered on the forum, plus the lurkers and guests who aren't registered that read our ramblings. And we are just the ones sober enough to find our computers, must be thousand's out there!

Grab,

Don't tell anyone, the government may be listening and then the buggers will want to tax it or excise it.

I don't know no homebrewers

A Sydney Morning Herald article a few years ago quoted 300,000 homebrewers in Australia, or a little over 1% of the population, but didn't mention where or how they obtained that figure so its just as likely to have been made up. And as we all know, 76.89% of all statistics are made up
