Guest beers in Breww now support full batch tracking and container types. To create a guest beer product, first set up the guest beer itself via Production -> Beers -> New beer -> Guest beer, then create products as normal using that beer. Breww automatically creates a linked stock item for purchasing, where you can add re-order quantities, supplier details and all other purchasing details.

When you receipt this stock item through an inventory receipt, Breww automatically generates product stock with batch and expiry tracking, just as if you had packaged it yourself. This means:

• Rack from containers - Guest beers work just like your own products
• Auto-assemble support - Include guest beers in multi-packs and mixed-packs
• Duty configuration - Specify whether you're responsible for the duty or not (defaults to not your responsibility, just like before)
• Unified reporting - Guest beers are included in reports broken down by container type

The "Guest beer" product type has been removed. Existing guest beer products are now "Stock item" products with a flag identifying them as guest beers, and new guest beer products are created as Keg, Cask, Smallpack, etc. Existing guest beer products can still be identified through the "is_guest_beer" option in BrewwQL and reporting. All existing PriceBook rules and BrewwQL filters have been updated to handle this change automatically.

If you previously set up guest beers using the older method, you can optionally migrate your existing stock items to take advantage of these improvements. See the migration guide for details.
