Outdated!! I purchased this book (and paid a prime price for it) thinking that we could plan some road trips from it. Half the places are out of business because this book is 10 years old! Maybe I misunderstood "featured" products, but why would such an out of date book be "featured" now? Very disappointed in this purchase, but I did learn that I need to check the copyright date before my next purchase.. tj said the Beer Bible. This book is a must for anyone that enjoys fine crafted beer.. "Five Stars" according to Frederic J. Noel. A++
