1st sampled at Flying Saucer on the Lake Beerfest, but I was so toasted that I forgot to rate this brew. I remember it being bad ass, so this has been on my must try radar for a while. Along came Fort Worth Untapped. Poured a dark brown color with a thin tan top. Taste of strawberry, chocolate milk, roasted and toasted malts, smooth finish. Nice carbonation, well balanced!

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap @ Lake Saucer Beerfeast.
Near black brew with some tan head. Aromas of smoke, chocolate, roasted malt, and Nestle Quick. The smoke aroma may be burnt malts as the flavor has a smoky/burnt quality as well. Odd one.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at the Flying Saucer at the Lake Beerfeast 2012.
The beer pours a black color with a tan head. The aroma has a lot of chocolate and roasted malt in it, as well as a hint of strawberry. The flavor is very heavy on the roasted malts and chocolate, with a little bit of lactose. There is a little bit of sweet, fruity strawberry in the flavor, but it is fairly subtle. Still, it doesn’t clash with the other notes in the flavor and makes the beer quite enjoyable. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
(draught) near black with dark tab bubbles. Nose of burnt chocolate malt, odd strawberry component, taste of burnt malt, burnt toast, strawberry syrup in small quantities, medium thick body with a burnt linger.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draught. Nose of chocolate malt with some coffee notes and a bit of strawberry if you try hard enough. Black with a firm brown head. Sweet, light acidity, and as expected it brings notes of chocolate covered strawberries. Finishes roasty. Creamy texture. Subdued fruit from the use of fresh berries, but it works. Odd, but enjoyable.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
For once, subtlety works for me. The name invokes images of Nestle Strawberry Quik but this is something else entirely. Instead it’s a rich, creamy, malty stout with perfect hints of strawberry sneaking in here and there.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
On tap at Texas Beerfest. Pours a dark brown with small beige head leaving spotty lacing. The aroma is roasted malt and strawberry notes. Medium mouthfeel with a sweet malt and light roast with subtle strawberry flavor. Easy to drink an impressive stout from Ranger Creek.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Shorty pint at Draught House- after being caught in a rainstorm on the way home last night, and looking like something that cat brought in, I needed a beer! Served a brownish/black color, minimal light tan head laced very nicely as I was shaking off the cold. Aroma of malt with some roast to it, some wood, and a fart worth of strawberries. Hits the mouth with a medium body, malt is good enough, cream like quality in the middle, finish has another fart worth of strawberries. Good enough for me.
