Kornog

Kornog is a Breton word referring to a type of strong, dark beer, typically a stout or porter. The term is most closely associated with the Brittany region of France, where it is used to describe beers brewed in the local style, often characterized by roasted malt flavors, hints of coffee or chocolate, and a rich, full body. While not a formally defined beer style, "Kornog" implies a beer of notable strength and robustness. It is often used marketing to emphasize the traditional Breton brewing heritage. The name may also evoke imagery of the rugged coastal landscape of Brittany. The use of the word is primarily linguistic and regional, helping to differentiate Breton-brewed stouts and porters from other similar beers.
