203/2424) Home:  Red Racer Raspberry by Central City Brewing of British Columbia:  **;  3.5%;  from their Low Rider series, not the Across The Nation series;  brewed with raspberry juice, lactose, lactic acid and vanilla; raspberry nose; opens with fresh raspberry yielding to sweetness from the lactose and finishes with tart raspberry flavours;

204/2425) Home:  Singing Sands, a collaboration between Central City Brewing of British Columbia and Upstreet Craft Brewing of Prince Edward Island:  *1/2; 5%; a  salted caramel lager; brewed with the usual four ingredients and brown sugar, lactose, cocoa, sea salt and vanilla;  malty brown sugar nose; sweet cocoa and caramel flavours;  sea salt asserts itself at the finish; I could do without the salt, otherwise very fine indeed;
