Good, beer - one of my favourite subjects.
'to brew' in Welsh is 'bragu' - I don't know its
etymology. 'Cwrw' is beer (<'cwrwf' < 'cwrf' <
Celt.'korma').
You'll also find the word used for a rather nice
Breton beer, brewed in Montroulez (Morlaix) called
'Koreff' (a revived medieval form).
I won't postulate any connection, certainly without
looking in my reference books - I'll leave that to the
experts. But I have long wondered whether there could
just possibly be a link. Guto
