Dutch courage, also known as pot-valiance (or potvaliancy), refers to courage gained from intoxication with alcohol. The popular story dates the etymology of the term Dutch courage to English soldiers fighting in the Anglo-Dutch Wars (1652-C1674) and perhaps as early as the Thirty Years' War (1618-C1648).
