Hot from me. I have a couple of kits to knock up, haven't had the time lately. Have one Corny standing empty, one with a Coopers Lager that's been there about 8-10 months. I also have two Woodfordes Wherry tins to do! That stuff is outstanding! If you've never tried it, buy it, brew it, you'll love it!
EDIT: Sorry, a 'Corny' for those that don't know is a stainless steel keg. If you fancy going for your own little bar, you can make yourself a kegerator... that's not my set up, although I do have two cornies and my CO2 Bottle. That's just a plain fridge with a tower tap in the top to deliver your own carbonated, nice cool homebrew. If you haven't been involved in homebrew before, were involved years ago, it's nothing like it used to be... it was pretty grim stuff years ago. Now there are micro brewers everywhere, it's a MASSIVELY growing hobby and you get to produce stuff you can share with friends and family. Believe me, if you like ale/bitter, you will be very impressed with Woodfordes Wherry.

I'm now up to 5 Cornelius kegs. 3 are currently empty so planning to get them filled soon!!
Created a collar for an old chest freezer that I had lying around to raise the lid up so I can fit 2 kegs inside.

Yep, it's expensive but it lasts for ages. It is super concentrated so dilutes right down. If you have space, you can keep a batch made up in a spare bucket and use it pretty much indefinitely if the pH is in a specific range (check each time you use it with some litmus paper). I keep a solution made up in a spray bottle that I use all the time, spraying onto the keg posts and taps etc each time I change kegs or clean lines etc.
