New Belgium Sees the Lite

In pursuit of the mass market, New Belgium drops one more of their unique and interesting brews; the wild and gamey Biere de Mars, which I loved, is gone, replaced by the lite, insipid, and disappointing Springboard. I didn't care when they replaced Loft with the even-lighter Skinny Dip, but this latest switch is quite a bum deal.

Is this news authoritative? Where did you hear they were getting rid of the Biere de Mars?

I contacted the brewers, who said they had quality problems with Biere de Mars last year, and wouldn't make it again until they got it right. Maybe next year.
