Commercial Description:
"This ain't your Dad's malt liquor" - Brewmaster John Maier After the death of his wife, Henry Jackson Smart was left to raise 6 young children alone. His courage, love, selflessness and dedication inspired his daughter, Sonora Smart Dodd, to organize the First Father's Day on June 19th, 1910. In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge proclaimed the third Sunday in June as Fathers Day. President Nixon, in 1972, established it as a permanent day of national observance. Dad's is brewed with Harrington and Klages malts, Flaked Corn, Crystal Hops, Free Range Coastal Water, and Czech Pils Yeast. Available in the spring of 2005 in the classic 22-ounce Rogue micropiece. Measurements: 17 degrees Plato, IBU 25, Apparent Attenuation 77, Lovibond 10 degrees.

22 oz bomber. No freshness date noted.

Hazy golden with a creamy white head and spotty lace.

Aroma of sweet corn, grain, light brown sugar.

Flavor is sweet, malty, sugary, buttery, with a bit of hops on the finish.

Not bad for a sweet malt liquor, much better than the OE, Mickeys, Steel that make up this genre.

650ml brown bottle. Pours yellow, almost a canary yellow shade. Hazy. Holds a small tight white head. Very light aroma, dusty malt. Sweet flavour, sugary malt start, trace of sweet orangey/citrus hops. A bit of alcohol there too. Finish is a bit corny, aftertaste quite a bit grainy and cerealy. Doesn’t have the harshness I usually associate with this style, but it’s still malt likka.

Bomber bottle. It’s got that Colt .45 color, and a head of foam like a urine sample. Big, big corny taste, even a bit of the harsheness and chemical diacetyl of a mass produced malt liquor. Just enough to remind us how this style has come once real brewers started to meddle with it.

Was not very happy with this beer at all. I bought for around $5 and was expecting better. Beer has an orangish-tan appearance and had a decent head after initial pour but it didn’t last long. The taste was not very desirable. It wasn’t very bitter but it left an astringic like taste on my palate. After taste was equally unpleasant and I’m not looking forward to finishing the rest of the pint!

Bottle. Pours hazy golden-orange color, with a medium sized white head. Aroma is basically all malt, duh. Flavor is mild hops, malt, perhaps some breadiness, grainy. Palate is medium bodied, medium carbonation, finishes lightly bitter. Not horrible, not good either.

Bottle...very sweet-malty character followed by a yeasty bread-like aftertaste. Got on sale for 2.99, I would pay that again, but at full price almost all the other Rogues are a better choice.

This $4.99 bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly diminishing and left behind a transparent typically carbonated orange colored body and a fair lacing. The mild aroma was malty. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of malt mild hops breads and orange peel. A decent one but not one that I would consider buying again.

I don;t understand the hatred here. This is not a bad beer. Slightly somkey vegital grainyness and a hint of sweet malt. Nice grainy biscuity flavor, with a decent alcohol kick. This is a great malt liquor, maybe not a great beer, but a great malt liquor.
