Meaning and background

The story behind Brew

Brew is an everyday word with a particularly British tea-time use: a brew can mean a freshly made cup of tea. It also belongs to the language of beer-making and mixtures. As a dog's name, its single, drawn-out vowel gives it a very different sound from longer traditional names, without needing an invented personal-name history.

Meaning
A prepared drink; in British informal usage, a quantity of tea; also a type of beer. Source
Origin
English word, related to Old English brēowan “to brew”. Source
Pronunciation
British English /bruː/. Source
