Rouge Dads Little Helper

I tend to shy away from trying beers like like lagers and malt liquors, but when one of these is made by a brewery like Rouge Ales I have to try it at least once.

Dads Little Helper pours light yellow with a slight orange tinge. Its quite translucent and bubbly with a thin white head. The aroma is to be expected for a malt liquor with notes of sweet corn, syrup, and some wheat. The flavor is fairly tasteless and actually a tad yeasty (if anything). There is a sweet corn aftertaste which is not very pleasant at all. Light to medium bodied and very carbonated.

I suppose for a malt liquor it is not too bad, but coming from Rouge it is not too good either.
