I have noticed a lot of brewers, especially AG, using water from the garden hose to brew. 99% of garden hoses are not safe to drink from, much less brew from.http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-lead-free-garden-hose.htm
I had heard that from someone I trust a while back and a quick google popped up this site and a few others. Safe hoses are clearly marked and are not typically found in Home and Garden stores.
For those not inclined to care about their health, I can't imagine that lead does anything good for beer.
