Crossword Genius

Talented with drink (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ale

'drink' is the definition.
(type of beer)

'talented with' is the wordplay.
'with' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'ALE' is hidden in the letters of 'talented'.

(Other definitions for ale that I've seen before include "Beer consumed in sales" , "Brewery product" , "brew" , "English beer, may be bitter" , "Alcoholic beverage" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
