Wrecked with a good stout (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aground

'wrecked' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'with a good stout' is the wordplay.
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a good' becomes 'ag' (I've seen this in other clues).
'stout' becomes 'round' (I've seen this before).
'ag' put next to 'round' is 'AGROUND'.

(Other definitions for aground that I've seen before include "(Of ship) touching the bottom" , "(Of ship) not floating" , "(Of a ship) stuck on the seabed" , "out of water" , "On guard (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
