'fairly-priced' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'ales on bar drunk by english' is the wordplay.
'drunk' indicates an anagram.
'by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'english' becomes 'E' (abbreviation as in OED).
'ales'+'on'+'bar'='alesonbar'
'alesonbar' is an anagram of 'reasonabl'.
'reasonabl'+'e'='REASONABLE'
