SC - cream/herbs/custard

[DUNHAM Patricia R]

  Just thought I'd add my bit to the brewing trivia.  According to my 
  lecturer in Gothic German (yes, I did study it) the word ale comes 
  from aluir, which means to hallucinate.  

The Merriam Webster online dictionary give the etymology as:
    Etymology: Middle English, from Old English ealu; akin to Old Norse
    ol ale, Lithuanian alus

The Microsoft Bookshelf says:
    [Middle English, from Old English ealu, alu.]

My local online webster is broken right now.
