Possibly etymology extension edit

I came across the following on a beer blog, but not in a dictionary or similar source:

There was, indeed, a type of Welsh beer called bragaut (bragawd in modern Welsh, “bragget” in English), from a supposed Old Celtic word *bracata, which was made from wort fermented with honey, and the name of which was, again, derived from [the Gallic word] bracis.

It's quite possibly correct, although I can't find *bracata anywhere either. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 13:56, 16 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
