Brugge is very cool. There is a brewpub there you can visit, to knock off another brewery - and it has a great tower view of the town: http://www.halvemaan.be/e/brouwerij.htm
Also, as unlikely as it seems, this hostel has a very cool bar with 25 Belgian brews available and very reasonable prices (the clientele are backpackers, after all): http://www.snuffel.be/accomodation.html
