Honestly. I'm a little disappointed there. Compton fell short of his Ton. Ali & Woakes both out for Ducks. The last two wagged. Psychologically 300 helps. It could have been a deal less.

But, the game is easy. You need more than that. A reasonably patient bowling display has kept it level pegging.

Even the first beer was a little disappointing. Not a great deal wrong with it. Just not too sure about it.

Two Okes Brewery, African Pale Ale from a bottle at 5%. A harsh sweetness. Can't quite place. A childhood sweet. Kola Kube? The bitterness is OK. A bit Dandelion. A bit salad leaf.

That Brewing Co., That Blonde from a bottle at 4%. Dry in the mouth. A little Pucker Up. Nice sweetness. But overall a touch too sour.
