Crossword Genius

Ordered beer at discount (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rebate

'discount' is the definition.
(rebating is a kind of discounting)

'ordered beer at' is the wordplay.
'ordered' indicates an anagram.
'beer'+'at'='beerat'
'beerat' anagrammed gives 'REBATE'.

(Other definitions for rebate that I've seen before include "Cash refund" , "Sum paid back" , "Return of, eg, tax" , "price reduction" , "(Eg, tax) refund" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
