Stout supplier made out we're inferior to brother (6)
I believe the answer is:
brewer
'stout supplier made out we're' is the definition.
I know that 'stout' relates to this answer.
'inferior to brother' is the wordplay.
'inferior' becomes 'ewer' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'to' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'brother' becomes 'br' (abbreviation in titles of monks).
'ewer' put after 'br' is 'BREWER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for brewer that I've seen before include "Reference" , "who offers booze?" , "I make tea" , "Producer of beer" , "Beer manufacturer" .)
