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

'may be a mere bagatelle' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'a drink to the fit' is the wordplay.
'a drink' becomes 'pint' (I've seen this before).
'to the fit' becomes 'able' (I've seen this before).
'pint'+'able'='PINTABLE'

Can you help me to learn more?
