Name the Science Festival ale Competition
To celebrate the forthcoming The Times Cheltenham Science Festival, the festival team and Battledown Brewery have joined forces to brew a special Festival ale in advance of the June festival. The Festival wants YOU to come up with a name for it.The theme for this year's festival is Heresy so take your inspiration from that or anything else in this year's programme. The chosen winner will get a small cask of beer for themselves (over 18s only), a pair of tickets to the sold out Science of Beer event at the festival (Friday 5 June) and their suggested beer name produced into beer sold all across town.

Quote from Roland Elliot-Berry from Battledown Brewery;
‘It is always a great challenge coming up with a new beer to tantalise the taste buds and why not do a special festival brew.’Quote from Sharon Bishop Festival Producer;
‘Once we had programmed a Science of Beer event it seemed like a great idea to brew a special festival beer and to get everyone involved in choosing a name for it. Ales are often given creative names and the festival programme offers plenty of inspiration, so let your imagination flow! I look forward to toasting another great festival.’
