inapt

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

'a bit awkward' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'drunk a pint' is the wordplay.
'drunk' indicates an anagram.
'a'+'pint'='apint'
'apint' is an anagram of 'INAPT'.

'having' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for inapt that I've seen before include "Not fitting" , "Out of place" , "Unsuitable - paint (anag)" , "Useless" , "Not suitable or appropriate" .)
