I saw a question marked pairing. By its very nature, pairing is an opinion-based tag and should be removed. In my opinion it should be site policy not to allow these type of questions.

Since your objection isn't really about the tag, but the underlying questions, I'm going to ask you to join the discussion already on this topic.– Robert CartainoJan 22, 2014 at 2:40

It's not necessarily opinion-based, since for wine there are strong consumption norms which wine suits which dish.
However, in my opinion, the name pairing is a bit unfortunate. It should be renamed to something suggesting better, that that tag is for the questions about composing beer with dishes, maybe consumption or meal...
