375mL bottle, pours black with a small brown head. Aroma is a mix of chili pepper, vanilla and cocoa -- certainly more vanilla and cocoa presence than the regular base beer. Flavour brings out a similar combo of all of them, with the vanilla and cocoa showing up at first, then the spicy chilli peppers kick in leaving a lingering chili note. There is a noticeable woody character as well. Pretty solid stuff, but I prefer the base beer.

Bottle, 375ml. It pours a dark brown to black body and a dense, small, tan head. Roasted nose with chocolate, some alcohol and booze, dried fruits and vanilla. Really pleasant. The flavor has chili, vanilla, roasted malts, booze and chocolate, leading to a roasted, lightly chili burning finish. Full body. A bit unbalanced I think, but pleasant and tasteful, and sure nice. 130504

Shared green bottle at local tasting. Black colour, moderate beige head. Complex aroma with notes of smoke, oak, tar and cocoa. Hints of vanilla. Flavour of chipotle, roasted malts / coffee, oak and cocoa. Some slight sourish notes in the background.

Imported from my RateBeer account as Mikkeller Texas Ranger Barrel Aged (Vanilla- & Cocoa beans Edition) (by Mikkeller):
Aroma: 8/10, Appearance: 4/5, Taste: 7/10, Palate: 4/5, Overall: 15/20, MyTotalScore: 3.8/5
7/IV/2012 - 37.5cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ Erwin's place - BB: n/a (2012-338) Thanks to Erwin for sharing the bottle!
Dark brown beer, creamy beige to brown head, unstable, little adhesive. Aroma: lots of chocolate, vanilla, bit of smoke. MF: good carbon, medium body. Taste: dark chocolate, vanilla, mocha, some chilli, cocoa powder, bit of red berries. Aftertaste: chillies, dark chocolate, mocha, more chillies. Interesting, but a little unbalanced, too much chillies, making it a bit too hot to just drink like that. Should be accompanied by a meal. Maybe a chocolate dessert?

Bottle. Creamy off-white good mostly lasting head. Almost black colour. Moderate vanilla aroma. Roast and other malt present. Modetate bitter nice roasted flavor. Chili too dominating. Doesnt compute with vanilla and coconut. Creamy palate.
