Inept Greek character upping drinking capacity, left for north (9)

I believe the answer is:

unskilful

'inept' is the definition.
(inept means showing a lack of skill)

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Another definition for unskilful that I've seen is " Clumsy".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
