Four English Pounds. For a pint of 3.8% Black Sheep on cask in the East Stand Long Room. Sort of OK for me. I'm basically a one pint a dayer at ordinary cricket. Lovely pint as well. I spoke to the brewery guy who puts the bars in. They'd had to ship a lot of casks from the depot and get 'em racked overnight. Not much settling time there.

Anyway. Slightly hazy. There is a nice one trick pony bitter hit. Which dies a bit as you get down the glass. They chill it a bit on these racked bars. So, it was nice & refreshing.

Game moves on. NZ in the front seats now. Stuart Broad wagged the tail. They got it to exact parity. But NZ, lead by Watling, pushed the lead past 300. Six down. Two earth days left.

Hand built for a 200 opening stand in the chase. Go Adam.

148/313
