All modern kegs are stainless steel, but the old ones are still out there. I just saw one on craigs list for $200 , premium price for a 25 year old keg

Ya know I can't say you are wrong and I won't.....I was thinking as of today's market and getting your hands on one at the beer store today. So with that thinking an aluminum keg would surely be a rare find in America today I mean. Nowthen, if you found one for sale I would have to think it's got some age on it! I know no reason why it couldn't be used as a boiler for your still, the three that I have are SS and they work just fine but I bet if you looked a little bit you could find a SS keg a whole lot cheaper than aluminum. You could buy a keg of your fav beer and there ya go. Sorry for the misunderstanding on my part.
