Default Consolidating Beer Forums

I'm thinking of combing all the Beer forums by Type to a single General BeerForum.

What do you guys think? Should we keep them broke down like they are now or should we merge them?

Why not keep them broken down the way they are, but just add another section that is a "view all" subcategory?

While they don't appear to be getting much use right now, I think as membership grows, and hopefully posting increases, the separation will become necessary. Just

(Also, as rough as it may be, a listing of what beers belong in each category, for those who aren't lifelong beer aficionados and don't necessarily know all of the finer nuances, may help people feel more at ease in posting there. I know I've had to look up things a few times.)

So it seems most people are against merging them to a single forum?

I like the lay out as it is...as previously stated with more membership I think they'll get more use.
