Where you from, old boy; I ain't never heard of no suitcase of beer down home, and I come from where the howlin' dogs are quieted by throwing 'em fresh-fried hush-puppies, where uppity white-folks don't eat catfish, and where folks who say "col-yum" instead of "column" ain't never read no Faulkner, let alone James Joyce.
Y'all have a good 'un, now.

It is not a WA thing, a carton can also be called a slab (cans instead of bottles) or case anywhere in Oz.
