Beer taken round a camp (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

laager

'camp' is the definition.
(laager is a kind of camp)

'beer taken round a' is the wordplay.
'beer' becomes 'lager' (lager is a kind of beer).
'taken round' indicates putting letters inside.
'lager' going around 'a' is 'LAAGER'.

(Other definitions for laager that I've seen before include "Entrenched position" , "South African enclosure" , "Wagon camp in a ring" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
