Not saying that the merge is a bad idea, but I would like to see a discussion first. Prost!

Hi Hammersbach. Thanks for your interest in this topic. Merges that follow existing guidelines do not need discussions first - see
Help:Merging. The guidelines for this particular merge are
WP:PRODUCT and
WP:Brands. The two references used in the Utica Club article are about the
Matt Brewing Company, so that is the most appropriate place to put the information. The merge isn't about deleting the material, it's about putting it in the most appropriate place where it can be most useful to the average reader. Stub articles which are only linked to from a few articles, and which attract few readers or editors, are better served by being merged with the appropriate parent article. If later the information on the sub-topic develops, it can be split out from the parent article in
WP:Summary style. Information on the brand Utica Club is more likely to grow and develop when it is contained within a larger parent article which attracts more readers and editors. This merge follows appropriate guidelines and will assist the general reader, and both the parent and sub-articles. Let me know if you have any any further concerns. SilkTork *

Hi SilkTork, and let me thank you for your interest in this topic as well! Let me also thank you for your perfectly marvelous explanation on both the policy and benefits of merging. I do have to confess though that I am a bit confused as to why you feel that this type of explanation is necessary (although after looking at your user page maybe not so much). My only concern with this is that while “merges that follow existing guidelines do not need discussions first”, I find it to be a bit of a, well,
courtesy to allow editors who have contributed to the article to have the opportunity to weigh in prior to, rather than after, the merge. Anyway, as I said above, I’m not saying this merge is a bad idea.
