In Europe it's a good way to get some decent food. Stuttgarter Hoffbrau, Leimen Brauerei (try the schmalz!), Vetters, Kemptenbrauerei, Forst, etc.
I've always liked Huberbrau.
Can't imagine driving in the US with a plate like this.

The only ones I've been to are/were local: Dunedin Brewery and the old Budweiser Brewery that was attached to Busch Gardens back in the day (Bud sucks, but this was back when there was a hospitality house...free beer is good beer).
Planning on hitting up Brooklyn Brewery (NY), Yuengling (PA), and Terapin (GA) at some point on our road trip up to NJ in October. For the past 20 or so years I've lived minutes away from the Yuengling brewery here in Tampa...I have yet to go. Not even sure if it is still open.
There's a brewery set up in the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. I might check out the Steam Whistle Brewery in the roundhouse the next time I'm riding up in T.O.
visited a brewery on the Czech/Slovak border in the province/state of Silisia...Zywiec. They brew quite a few beers including the contract brewing of Heinken. Warka is another brand. Interesting tour if your ever in the area.
