Bramah
Excellent. Extremely good, one of the best.
This is not uncommon in England but is most often heard in people who are Cockney, or close to it.
It's never used for some things, but often for others. A cake is never bramah, but the baker who baked it could be. A novel would not be, but its author could be.
