Got up very quietly, bringing beer round, and fruit (4,5)

I believe the answer is:

rose apple

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fruit' is the definition.
(rose apple is a kind of fruit)

'got up very quietly bringing beer round' is the wordplay.
'got up' becomes 'rose' (past tense of 'raise').
'very quietly' becomes 'pp' (musical abbreviation for pianissimo).
'bringing beer' becomes 'ale' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'round' indicates putting letters inside.
'pp' going within 'ale' is 'apple'.
'rose'+'apple'='ROSE-APPLE'

'and' acts as a link.
