It may be brown or blonde (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ale

'it may be brown or blonde' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ale that I've seen before include "Beer consumed in chalets" , "Traditional beer" , "Similar to beer" , "English beer, mild or bitter" , "brewing?" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily, The Washington Post, the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.
