New shop for beer ingredient (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hops

'beer ingredient' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'new shop' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates anagramming the letters.
'shop' with letters rearranged gives 'HOPS'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for hops that I've seen before include "(Little) jumps" , "Dances -- beer ingredient" , "Leaps on one leg" , "Skips" , "Beer flavouring" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
