While you’ll find plenty of public art and some top-notch art museums here, the real reason to visit Grand Rapids is to try its brews. Home to more than 80 craft breweries, Grand Rapids has become an award-winning beer destination, so much so that it has earned the nickname of Beer City USA. You’ll find guided beer tours, hard cider tastings and even hotel beer packages that bundle your accommodations with a free pint and souvenir glasses.
