Depends on the beer bc they will all have different densities. But for shipping in my liquor store a 750ml of wine is 4-5lbs lower for wine, higher for champagne bc of the extra glass. 1.5 liters of wine are 7-8 lbs. Since beers use a bit thicker glass in that format (usually) a guess of 4.5 lbs should be conservative enough. I took pictures so you can see for yourself.
Amicus Curiae. Definition: Latin term meaning friend of the court. The name for a brief filed with the court by someone who is not a party to the case. ... a phrase that literally means friend of the court -- someone who is not a party to the litigation, but who believes that the court's decision may affect its interest.
Amicable, not surprisingly, comes from the Latin word for friend, amicus. Perhaps the things most commonly described as amicable are divorces. The parties in a divorce often tend to be so childish and the proceedings so messy that it's nice to have a word that reflects the absence of those qualities.
