We introduce StratRAG, an open-source retrieval evaluation dataset for benchmarking Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems on multi-hop reasoning tasks under realistic, noisy document-pool conditions. Derived from HotpotQA (distractor setting), StratRAG comprises 2,200 examples across three question types -- bridge, comparison, and yes-no -- each paired with a pool of 15 candidate documents containing exactly 2 gold documents and 13 topically related distractors. We benchmark three retrieval strategies -- BM25, dense retrieval (all-MiniLM-L6-v2), and hybrid fusion -- reporting Recall@k, MRR, and NDCG@5 on the validation set. Hybrid retrieval achieves the best overall performance (Recall@2 = 0.70, MRR = 0.93), yet bridge questions remain substantially harder (Recall@2 = 0.67), motivating future work on reinforcement-learning-based retrieval policies.
