This is the same issue here ([https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-input-beats/issues/58](https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-input-beats/issues/58) )  
Every event will be add a tag `beats_input_codec_json_applied` if I specify the codec in input config file.

Is there any way to disable this tag in logstash? without using any plugin.

Thanks in advanced
