    Regarding including the brewery name in the beer's title, which we are no longer doing, I have been submitting Edit Suggestions via Beer Tools to (at least) get the brewery's name removed from that beer's entry.

    For instance: "The Duck-Rabbit Rabid Duck" becomes amended to simply read: "Rabid Duck".

    However, the label clearly reads: "Rabid Duck Russian Imperial Stout".

    To my (perhaps misguided) way of thinking, the entirety of the label's name, including the beer's style, should be included when it is clearly marked as such on the label. This would make my example read: "Rabid Duck Russian Imperial Stout", which is not only complete & correct, but it also alleviates having to scroll down to see an unfamiliar beer's style further down in the entry.

    Most of my suggestions have been acted upon in a timely & complete manner, but recently, I have only been seeing simple amendments, like: "Rabid Duck".

    Can some additional guidance be forthcoming so that greater homogeneity will result?
