Peg, getting stuck into beer, on the slippery slope? (6)
I believe the answer is:
alpine
'peg getting stuck' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'beer on the slippery slope?' is the wordplay.
'beer' becomes 'ale' (I've seen this before).
'on' indicates putting letters inside (as in clothing \'on\' a person).
'the slippery slope?' becomes 'pin' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'ale' placed around 'pin' is 'ALPINE'.
'into' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for alpine that I've seen before include "from Germany, Austria etc" , "Native growing up in mountainous area" , "seen in rocky state?" , "Plant of high mountains" , "Relating to a European mountain range" .)
