'New' Boris Braun BierAtlas....worth the $$$?

I got on the pre-order list, and had one sent to me right after it was published. It's a good update, even if there have already been some more closures since it came out. The panels by Franconian cartoonist Gerd Bauer are amusing, particularly the ones that feature Barry's favorite grumpy waitress (or a remarkable facsimile). There are a couple of pages documenting recent closures as well as recent openings. In spite of the steep-ish price (and the dollar's increasingly terrible exchange rate), I judged it a worthwhile addition to the books-on-beer library.
