Spilling a pint - clumsy (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inapt

'clumsy' is the definition.
(I know that clumsy can be written as inapt)

'spilling a pint' is the wordplay.
'spilling' is an anagram indicator.
'a'+'pint'='apint'
'apint' is an anagram of 'INAPT'.

(Other definitions for inapt that I've seen before include "Unsuitable - paint (anag)" , "badly judged" , "Unsuited" , "Improper" , "Not fit, unsuitable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
