One employed to carry the beer (6)
I believe the answer is:
porter
'the beer' is the definition.
(type of beer)
'one employed to carry' is the wordplay.
'one employed' becomes 'er' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (I've seen this in other clues).
'carry' becomes 'port' (porting is a kind of carrying).
'er' after 'port' is 'PORTER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for porter that I've seen before include "alcoholic drink" , "One fetches and carries the drink" , "Station worker" , "Cole - - , songwriter" , "Cole - - , composer" .)
