I'll be in The Hague that weekend.
It's a good time, but go early!

Coming from the Netherlands the earliest I can be there is around 11. No way I'm driving home after that so I'll have to take the train.
A friend of mine is coming from the Hague that day, only two hours by bus to gare du nord. Not bad
 
I've heard that there will be more variation in takeaway bottles on saturday. Don't know if this is true though.
I sent them an email today

Met zekerheid zullen we Gueuze, Rosé de Gambrinus, Grand Cru Bruocsella hebenne om mee te nemen.
Voor wat beschikbaar zal zijn aan de bar, zullen we waarschijnlijk ook Kriek, Foufoune, Zwanze 2012, 2013 en 2015, Lou Pépé Framboise.
 
Visiting my sister in Brussels for two weeks in February. Any idea when in the month those two weeks should be for a better chance of getting bottles/seasonals?

In b4 "You shouldn't plan your Brussels trip based on 'loon releases" (which always struck me as a weird thing to say on a forum full of 'loon-hoarding beer traders).

I'd say earlier in the month is better, St Lam/Vig are sometimes released in the Jan-Feb period - though sometimes as late as March. Hard to tell with lambic.

I'm planning my next trip to Belgium based on when you're going to be there.
 
Can anyone confirm that Fou sold out (and that they didn't bring anymore out this week)? Got a buddy in Belgium this week and got my hopes up.
 
Was there on saturday, Fou was still for sale. Heard it sold out in the late afternoon, but when I went to the restroom there was still a pretty large quantity of Fou stacked against the wall, unlabelled.
Perhaps for in house consumption only?

I wish I could say that I casually urinate at Cantillon.
 
So February 5th in Brussels still?
Yes sir. I'm still in the planning stages of my trip, and part of that involves going through all the conversations I have open with locals. You were looking for a bag of some locally roasted coffee among other things I promised to bring, correct? We have some fantastic local roasters.
