Bishop always gets pint (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beer

'pint' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'bishop always' is the wordplay.
'bishop' becomes 'B' (chess abbreviation).
'always' becomes 'eer' (poetic way of saying ever).
'b'+'eer'='BEER'

'gets' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for beer that I've seen before include "It may be 13 across-ed!" , "Ale, lager etc" , "Fermented alcoholic beverage" , "See 4 down" , "Fermented alcoholic drink" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
