Minneapolis, one of the Twin Cities of Minnesota, is packed with craft breweries offering plenty of opportunities for tasting tours and taproom sipping. At dozens of locations across Minneapolis, fruit-infused ales, lively sours and miry stouts, as well as your standard crisp lagers, are concocted, conjured and poured with panache. Get in on the action by checking out this comparison of three brewery tours, each one offering a slightly different way to the heart of the brewing art.

Twin Cities Brews n’ Bites Tour

Food and drink pairings are more traditionally linked to fine wine, but this brews n’ bites tour proves that beer and nibbles are a delightfully rugged alternative. Taking a cue from the master brewers themselves at three different Minneapolis breweries, you’ll try tater tots and bratwurst, washed down with a pint of craft beer. Normally, breweries visited include Sisyphus, Fulton Brewing, and Urban Growler. This tour runs at 6pm on Saturdays only from Jan to Nov. From $75 per person.
