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.

Color is a typical amber, though more orange than the average lager. Smell is not strong and fairly malty, not very impressive. Flavor is all right, malty with a good alcohol zing to it, not complex. Texture is fairly smooth but has an edge. Not Rogue’s best, but I’m sure it tastes better than most malt liquors.

Very Interesting, I would have sworn there were some fruits included in the fermentation like rasberries or grapes, Golden Color, some fruit odors typical of a Belgian, with Flavors of Bananas and grapes, very sweet but with a nice clean finish. Can’t say its my type but at least it was different.

650 mL bottle. Pours a translucent orange with no head. Smells of sweet corn. Drinks a medium bitter with a hint of sweet. Aftertaste, what there is of it, fades quickly. There are better ways to become intoxicated than with this unremarkable beverage.

Gold pour with frothy head. Aroma is grassy hops, and buttery corn very weird indeed. Thin bodied and very one-dimensional.

pours a golden color and has a small foamy head. this beer sends me back to the streets of philly. Tastes like a classy colt 45. For malt liquor i guess its all right not something i would go out of my way to have. Tastes like nasty corn

Pours a clear gold with a foamy head that fades to a sudsy cap. The nose is of corn, saaz hops, and syrupy sweet malt. The flavour is miserable. It is astringently bitter, tangy, and filled with the flavour of nasty corn and other vegetables. The finish is hot, metallic and short lived. The mouthfeel is syrupy, liberally carbonated and nasty. Beats Colt 45 or Private Stock, but not by much.
