Press person with regard to beer (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reporter

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'press person' is the definition.
'reporter' can be an answer for 'person' (reporter is a kind of person). I'm not certain of the 'press' bit.

'with regard to beer' is the wordplay.
'with regard' becomes 're' ('re' means regarding or about).
'to beer' becomes 'porter' (type of beer).
're'+'porter'='REPORTER'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reporter that I've seen before include "One may write a column" , "Hack" , "News writer" , "News journalist" , "One who writes the news for the media" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
