'And I was able to come closer to this union when I positioned myself as a writer-director, more so than as an actor.'

Richmond Hill brewery rakes in African Beer Cup awards
A Gqeberha brewing company has once again demonstrated its excellence in craft beer by coming out tops at the annual African Beer Cup awards. The prestigious event saw 260 brews from 14 African countries compete, judged by a panel of 58 expert judges from around the globe. And on May 24, Richmond Hill Brewing Company (RHBC) said cheers to their competitors. Between May 17-20, certified judges and industry experts evaluated the beers using the Beer Judge Certification Programme guidelines. Each beer was judged twice by two different panels, and the scores were compared. If there was a difference of more than seven points between the two sets of scores, a third panel was called upon to re-evaluate, and an overall average of the three scores determined the final outcome. Richmond Hill Brewing Company has a remarkable history at the African Beer Cup, having previously won numerous awards, including Best Beer In Africa in 2023. This year, the brewery achieved outstanding success, securing a total of five medals — two gold, two silver, and one bronze. The Fever Dream Black IPA and the Forbidden Milkshake IPA both won gold medals in their respective categories, showcasing the company's innovative and high-quality brewing techniques. The Twin Fin Keller Pilsner and Two Moods Raspberry Saison were awarded silver medals, further proving the brewery's consistent excellence. Additionally, the Coastal Cult Hazy Pale Ale received a bronze medal, rounding off a stellar performance by the brewery. 'We wish to thank the African Beer Cup organisers for managing such a great event. 'We are very pleased with our performance as all the beers we entered won an award,' the Gqeberha company's master brewer Niall Cook said. 'A big thank you goes to our team at RHBC and to Yeastern Cape Brewing Club who collaborated with us on the excellent Forbidden Milkshake IPA, and to Hazeldean Brewing Co from Tyger Valley, with whom we worked on the unique Two Moods Raspberry Saison.' The brewery's beers cane be sampled at their tap room off Alabaster Street, Baakens Valley, or ordered off its website. The Herald

How to watch Fever at Dream: Caitlin Clark and Indiana try to avenge Tuesday's loss
The WNBA's opening week slate gives us the second part of a home-and-home swap with Indiana and Atlanta, henceforth known as the 'Fever-Dream' series. The visitors claimed Tuesday's matchup in Indianapolis off the strength of big first- and third-quarter runs. On Thursday night, Caitlin Clark and crew try to get one back in the ATL. Advertisement Admittedly not an actual fever dream, this pairing should still give us vivid visions of bucket-getting and shot-swatting. Clark notched a clean 20/10/10 line in the Fever's first win against Chicago on Saturday, then put up 27 points and 11 assists in Tuesday's 91-90 loss. The MVP aspirant is off to a strong start, as are teammates Kelsey Mitchell and Aliyah Boston, who each had 24 points on Tuesday night. It was Indy's newly added veterans who struggled against the Dream. DeWanna Bonner finished with a minus-19 in a one-point game. Natasha Howard shot just 3-of-9 with four fouls and four turnovers. The Fever had two leads all game: 2-0 in the opening minute and 90-89 in the waning seconds. The final stretch was nervy and tense, as Atlanta's Rhyne Howard drew a foul from Mitchell and sank two free throws, then Indiana's Natasha Howard missed a 2-foot hook shot for the win. The Dream had more second-chance points and won the turnover margin, compensating for their inferior 3-point shooting. Howard had the decisive points at the end, and Allisha Gray was diming, but the paint pairing of Brittney Griner and Brionna Jones really made the difference in Tuesday's win. Griner had 21 points on efficient 8-for-13 from the floor, while Jones nabbed six offensive rebounds en route to a 19/13/3 line. The interior duo also went a combined 12-for-16 on foul shots. Clark should have ample motivation in her first road game of the year. Just for audience consideration, here are her single-game career highs in the W so far: Best player to wear both jerseys: Candice Dupree. The seven-time All-Star played four seasons with the Fever and ended her career with the Dream in 2021.
