When you click on the brand, it will not do a site command, but rather just add the brand name to the search query.

Here is a screen shot of this from Ryan Mews on Twitter who shared a ton of examples - note, I cannot replicate this:

I kind of like the icon that shows a blue store for the store/brand specific filters.
