Welcome drop of the hard stuff? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hail

I believe this is a double definition.

'welcome' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'drop of the hard stuff?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for hail that I've seen before include "weather forecast?" , "Greet - bad weather" , "Call for - praise, vociferously" , "Call from a distance" , "Icy precipitation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
