— ale (4)

I think it could be either:

beer

pale

'ale' is the definition.
(ale is a type of beer)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for beer that I've seen before include "Drink with a head" , "Hop-flavoured drink" , "Brewery product" , ""Give me a woman who loves __ and I will conquer the world" (Kaiser Wilhelm)" , "The standard English drink" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, the King Feature Syndicate, the Evening Standard, The Mirror, the L.A. Times Daily, The Washington Post and The Telegraph.
