Minneapolis’ craft beer scene is so big that a bus tour is one of the best ways to visit a sampling of breweries. Hoppy Trolley (612-607-3681) rotates vans through more than a dozen spots, four per trip, plus a walking tour through downtown’s skyways that hits the breweries of the North Loop neighborhood with bonus views of Target Field and the theater district.

Twin Cities Brewery Tours (612-750-9898) turns its open-air bus into a hop-on-hop-off situation with stops at five breweries around town.
