Apparently if I travel to any of these cities and show my ID I'm entitled to a free beer so obviously I will be looking into some international travel in the future

It'd probably be a lot cheaper for that "free beer" if you just popped into the Nitty Gritty on your birthday.

Never get inbetween a Wisconsinite and their quest for free beer, it's like a Holy Grail to them.

Not sure, but there is likely a lot of them and never really understood the concept. However, my hometown of St. Augustine, Fla. has as one its sister cities Georgetown on Exuma Island in the Bahamas, and the two towns had a direct historical connection. Specifically, Georgetown was founded in 1783 by the former British residents of St. Augustine who fled when Florida fell back into the hands of the Spanish at the end of the American Revolution.
Anyway, to mark the 200th anniversary of the founding of Georgetown, St. Augustine sent over a group of dignitaries and I got to go and check out the cool island because my dad was the city attorney. In exchange, Exuma sent over a group of its own dignitaries which ended in a very embarrassing incident wherein the Exuma folks were over at party hosted in their honor at my parents' friends' place and a bunch of the local yahoos from a neighboring fish camp showed up with guns in hand asking if there was a problem. Pretty outrageous and not how you want to show off your town to the guests.

During my 1989-90 year abroad
During my 1989-90 year abroad at Universität Würzburg as a SUNY Albany German student, several of us discovered that Rochester, NY was a sister city. We all penciled in Rochester, NY as our hometown on our passports, went down to the Rathaus over the course of a couple weeks, and all ended up with free bus, tram, and public swimming pool facility passes for the year.
