Freezing ale (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bitter

I believe this is a double definition.

'freezing' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'ale' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for bitter that I've seen before include "Intensely cold, beer" , "Resentful, being piercingly cold" , "Sour like some English beer" , "English beer, sounds sour" , "Acerbic" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
