Life
The Martyrology of Donegal names Venerable Berach on 21 April (Old Style), as an abbot; the year of repose given is 663. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght and Gorman's martyrology. Veneration rests on the Irish tradition, without synodal canonization, and the sources say no more.
