    Hello!

    I don't want to get nitpicky, but one brewer has a beer labeled as an Imperial Stout. I added it into the system, but my only option was Imperial Porter. Is that a big deal, or should I suggest Imperial Stout as an option?

    Thanks so much!!!

    American and Russian are the lead words (terms?) to look for.

    As has been mentioned already, you should be looking for "American Imperial Stout" (or Russian Imperial Stout).
