The West Midlands has a long-standing tradition of brewing and beer making.
Breweries have been a part of the region for centuries, providing the welcoming aroma of hops and yeast in the air across the region and many different types of beer loved by thousands.
In the wake of the news of the planned closure of Banks's Brewery in Wolverhampton, the Star wants to support our local breweries and show that there are still many out there producing quality beers to be enjoyed in pubs across the region.
As part of our Backing Our Breweries campaign, we are going to look at what different breweries do, how they grew and built up their reputation, what their products are, how they continue to run in what are difficult financial times and what makes them special.

Take a drive into the south Shropshire countryside and you'll happen upon the small market town of Bishop's Castle, a picturesque and pretty town with rolling hills all around it.
Take a turn down Salop Street, however, and in the middle of a residential street, you'll come across a formidable Victorian brick building with the words "Three Tuns Brewery" clearly emblazoned on the side, bringing you up close and personal with one of the oldest breweries in the country.
