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.

Pretty bad, a really carbonated 40oz malt liquor from highschool days, brownish hue, corn syrupy hint, some with really bad skunky aftertaste, rather high alcohol %, best to drink really cold. Not too good

Bomber - Pours a darkish amber in color with a small white head that faded quickly with minor glass lacing. Aroma is, to me, what I remember of what a "malt" smells like... corn, small hops sweet malt. Flavor is malty sweet, corn and just a hint of spicy hops... surprising amount of fruitiness (grapes, apples) ... too sweet for me. Finishes syrupy sweet with a hint of bitter. Much better than malts used to be (Colt 45) and I enjoyed it, but this is not (and never has been) really my favorite type of beer.

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.
