Beer fit for a king is brought up? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lager

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

'fit for a king is brought up?' is the wordplay.
'fit for a king' becomes 'regal' (I've seen this before).
'is brought up?' says the letters should be written in reverse (I've seen 'is brought up' mean this).
'regal' in reverse letter order is 'LAGER'.

(Other definitions for lager that I've seen before include "drink in the bar?" , "Light-bodied beer" , "The drink could be regal" , "Tipple" , "A regal sort of drink" .)
