Person 1: It's a hoppy ale, kind of bitter, I hope that's OK.
Person 2: Sounds good to me. The mere fact that it's not 'lite' beer assures me that you are worthy to drink with. People who drink 'lite' beer should be shot and pissed on.

When you bottom out by landing heavily on your bike so bad that you end up with either broken testicles or mild spinal injuries.

Case
v. to case out-- to swap out the internals of recently purchased piece of hardware so that you get new hardware, and then you return your old hardware in the new case to place of purchase thereby screwing retailers or manufacturers or both.

In other words, a white collar way to possibly steal expensive hardware.
