Craft beer trails TUC organised (6,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

battle cruiser

'craft' is the definition.
(battle cruiser is a kind of craft)

'beer trails tuc organised' is the wordplay.
'organised' is an anagram indicator.
'beer'+'trails'+'tuc'='beertrailstuc'
'beertrailstuc' with letters rearranged gives 'BATTLE-CRUISER'.

(Other definitions for battle cruiser that I've seen before include "Early twentieth century warship" , "Large warship" , "Heavy-gunned ship" , "Fast warship" , "Earlier type of warship" .)
