Regal beverage? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lager

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'beverage?' is the definition.
(lager is a kind of beverage)

'regal' is the wordplay.
'regal' anagrams to 'LAGER'.
Though, I am not sure how the anagram is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lager that I've seen before include "The drink could be regal" , "A regal sort of drink" , "Light beer needed" , "Lout's drink?" , "Continental beer" .)
