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.

Very light in color, filtered. Strong foamy head. A little sweet with a strong aftertaste. Sneaky alcohol content, but probably nothing I would buy again.

Aroma is mostly malt but not very strong. Flavor is light, fairly malty not that much to it. Basically tastes like a more pleasant malt liquor or strong generic lager. Overall, more pleasant than the alternatives, but more of a novelty than anything.

Clear piss yellow/gold, thin white head. Aroma of sweet corn and apple. Taste is sweet and cardboard. Thin body, what a joke, c’mon man.

Bought a 22 oz bottle for my Dad for Fathers Day last year. Pours a light hazy straw color with a small white head. Aroma is grainy with all sorts of farm-like notes, straw, corn, etc. Flavor is clean and smooth, so already better than the typical malt liquor. Grassy and lightly bitter in the finish with some barely there hops. Dominated by the sweet grains, but not unpleasant in the finish. Light to medium body and active carbonation. This was a fun one to drink with Pops

Bottle. Pours a dark gold with a a quickly dissipating off-white head. Aroma is full of notes of grain, malts and corn. Flavor has sweet malt notes with grainy and corn undertones. It is a bit syrupy on the tongue.

22 ounce bottle from Beer Run in Charlottesville, VA. Pours a hazy peach color with a thin head. Poor head retention and lacing. Aroma of toasted grain, corn and burned sugar. Taste is sweet sugary corn with a bit of bitter grassiness. Medium bodied. Damn good for a malt liquor, but still not that great.
