== Fields ==
 
Each product that is entered into Open Food Facts has a set of fields. What should be entered in these field is not always clear and ambigious. In order to limit this confusion the best practice is listed here. The principle is that only information available on the labels, bottle and capsule might be used. Use the language selected on the OFF Edit Product page. If you use another language to enter fiels, precede it with a lanuage specifier. Thus on the french edit page we would enter en:Wheat Beer.<br />

The categories found on a label are very limited. They can be enhanced using the [[Global categories taxonomy]].We try to define the rationale behind the categories here.

==== Current taxonomy ====
 
The current categories taxonomy for beer is:<br />
 
The current categories taxonomy for beer is:<br />

+
:* Alcoholic beverages - Beverages with ingredient alcohol on the label;
:::# Lager : light coloured beer
+
::* Beers : Alcoholic beverages based on fermentation of (malted) grains ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer#Ingredients wikipedia]), implying that a grain should be on the ingredient list;
::# Origin (brewery country branch) {not specific to beer}
+
(beer sub category based on beer colour)

+
:::* Lager : light coloured beer;

 +
(subcategory based on production place)
 +

 +
:::* Wheat beers - beers based on unmalted wheat in a large proportion ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheat_beer wikipedia]);
 +
:::* Strong beers : beers with a high alcohol level
 +
(taxonomy branched based on the manufacturing scale)
 +
* Artisan Products - indicates the scale? of the manufacturing
 +
** Artisan Beverage Products
 +
*** Artisan Alcoholic Beverage Products (alcool artisanaux);
 +
**** Craft Beer : beers produced on a small scale. Usually this is defined on the label;
 +
 
 +
==== Possible categories ====
 +
Some other categories that are found on labels:
 +
* Lambic;
 +
* Bières Irlandaises;
 +
* Bières de gardes;
 +
* Organic beers (Bières bio) - beers with a organic related label;
 +
* Top Fermented beers - as said on the label
 +
* Flavored beers (Bières aromatisées) -
 +
* Fruit flavored Beers (Bières aromatisées aux fruits) -
 +
* Bières trappistes - on the label
 +
* Tripel - a variety of Belgian beer. Could be viewed as a subcategory of Strong beers.

Do not like how this works out. The field should only be used for keyword like attributes. There is not really a place to put url's such as these.--[[User:Aleene|Aleene]] ([[User talk:Aleene|talk]]) 18:59, 5 September 2015 (CEST)
    
=== Open Street Map ===
 
=== Open Street Map ===
 
Location of breweries could be specified through an Open Street Map link. The link should then point to the brewery building (the way in OSM terms). To make clear this concerns external / non-OFF / non productlabel information is should be preceded by '''OSM:'''. Here is an example of how this could work: {{product|5411098110000}} .

OK, then the question is whether we re-label an alcoholic beverage as beer, when the ingredients are right, but it is not called as such on the productlabel (malt, hops). --[[User:Aleene|Aleene]] ([[User talk:Aleene|talk]]) 19:48, 23 August 2015 (CEST)

===Address markup.===
  −
We could add markup to addresses. Add brewery:, street: postalcode:, city: region/province:, city:, country: before each element.
   
=== Sixpack and single bottles ===
 
=== Sixpack and single bottles ===
 
Often beer is sold in a sixpack (or more). What to do with single bottles that came from such a sixpack. Often(?) these bottles do not have a barcode, but might contain interesting information. So do we add these bottles as products without a barcode?

 +
=== Alcohol and Health ===
 +
On beer bottles various warnings against drinking to much alcohol can be found. There can be logo's or warnings in text.
 +
==== EU ====
 +
On bottles sold in the EU there is a warning against drinking alcohol and pregnancy.
 +
==== France ====
 +
Sometimes the URL to an explanatory site ([http://2340.fr 2340.fr]) is found.
 +
On alcoholic beverages sold in France one sees the amount of alcohol (Unité Alcohol) a drink represents.
 +
==== UK ====
 +
Bottles show the link to [http://drinkaware.co.uk drinkaware.co.uk]<br />
 +
In addition the number of alchohol units per serving are listed (One unit of alcohol (UK) is defined as 10 millilitres (8 grams) of pure alcohol ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_alcohol wikipedia])). A formula is given to calculate these numbers (The number of UK units of alcohol in a drink can be determined by multiplying the volume of the drink (in millilitres) by its percentage ABV, and dividing by 1000.)
 +
 +
==== US =====
 +
Warning Surgeon General?
 +
 
=== Bottle shapes ===
 
=== Bottle shapes ===
Would it be possible to register the shapes of a bottle?
+
Would it be possible to register the shapes of a bottle? We could mesure height and maximum width to characterise a bottles shape.
 +
 
 +
== OFF Limitations ==
 +
The current setup of Open Food Facts has some limitations if you want to markup beer products in extreme detail. As these are extreme details, they are not really relevant to the main purpose of OFF, but you will find them listed on a separate [[OFF Beer Limitations|page]].
