Other than your own, what are all the other accounts of their quality starting to slip?
Take from it what you will:

Love them Quads and Barleywines, the latter have been so scarce to the point where I'd like to know what "coming soon" means.

Winter seasonal release I'd assume. Im sure the 3P will be 750ml, but I'd love to see it in 330ml. Fingers crossed.

I honestly don't care which. If it's up to snuff, any quad in any size format is alright with me. Knowing Ommegang, either size format will fetch a premium price tag but we've become accustomed to that with many of our local brews. . I just hope we don't have to wait till winter. If they can give us IPAs in the fall and winter they can surely give us a few quads and barleywines in the summer for a nice change of pace.

Apparantly, in negotiations to bring Founders back.

Ten Fidy has been ordered.

Supposedly, The Calling was shipped to order. The brewery is the one that sent out old product.

What, more Founders? Permanent listing? And did you say, Ten Fidy?

Not sure if their will be any permanent listings. They seem to be leary of those.

Saison Dupont coming back as well....but in the smaller bottle format. They were disappointed with sales during the last release in the 750ml format. It did not do well.

I'm sure Saison Dupont would do quite well if made available online.

Modern Times is a possibility as well. Trying to bring them in.
