Man associated with British spirit (6)
I believe the answer is:
brandy
'spirit' is the definition.
(alcoholic spirit)
'man associated with british' is the wordplay.
'man' becomes 'andy' (I've seen this before).
'associated with' says to put letters next to each other.
'british' becomes 'br' (abbreviation for British).
'andy' put after 'br' is 'BRANDY'.
(Other definitions for brandy that I've seen before include "Cognac, perhaps" , "Liquor distilled from wine" , "Marc, say" , "Strong spirit distilled from wine" , "Spirit from grapes" .)
