Stout hotel employee? (6)

I believe the answer is:

porter

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'stout' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'hotel employee?' is the second definition.
(type of hotel employee)

(Other definitions for porter that I've seen before include "Gatekeeper; beer" , "Report (anag.)" , "Hospital worker; beer" , "Drink for a hotel worker" , "alcoholic drink" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
