I believe the answer is:

tweeds

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

'may suit the countryman' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'stewed hash' is the wordplay.
'hash' indicates anagramming the letters.
'stewed' is an anagram of 'TWEEDS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tweeds that I've seen before include "Sensible clothing" , "garments" , "Stewed with woollen materials" , "Thick woollen fabrics from Scotland" , "clothing items" .)
