I grew up not far from Burton-on-Trent and never realised the significance of the water to the brewing industry. In hindsight it's obvious, but I guess, I never really thought about it.

Anyway, found this nice write up [1] on the history of the town.

Heh, I'm in Stoke-on-Trent and even though I've been through/past it loads, I've never realised B-O-T is so important either.
