    This post is regarding a minor frustration that I encounter frequently. Often, I learn about a beer in a forum, and then I want to move directly to the page for that beer. Currently, you cannot do this in one step, because the search function is limited to the forums. Would it not be possible to include beer pages in the forum search results?

    Workaround that I use is to download Context Menus Option for Chrome. Once it is installed I added the following menus
    BA Beer: http://www.beeradvocate.com/search/?q=%s&qt=beer
    BA Place: http://www.beeradvocate.com/search/?q=%s&qt=place
    Total Wine: http://www.totalwine.com/search/all?text=%s
    Specs (Texas Liquor Store): http://specsonline.com/?s=%s
    Once you have this configured, you can select a text on any webpage and right click and under the Contest Menu menu all of your submenus are listed, select one and it will take your selection and search for it in a new tab.
