The artwork

A vertical striped pattern of mustard, slate blue, and pale yellow dominates the front label, anchored by bold black sans-serif caps reading "DAD STRENGTH" and "CRISPY" with "2.9% ABV" and "94 Calories!" in script italics on the centre stripe. The back panel features the same striped background with a narrative text block titled "The Dadstory" and two cartoon head portraits of men—one with a prominent moustache, one grinning—with speech bubbles in pen-and-ink style.

From the label

“The Dadstory A few years back Stache Dad (Craig) was mixing non-alcoholic craft beers with regular craft beers in the same glass to make his own mid-strength brews. One day, he told Hat Dad (Ryan), who said, "Genius. Craft beer with all the flavor – but without the regret and extra calories. Why isn't this a thing? Let's make it!" Cut to an '80s-style beer-making montage, and voilà: Dad Strength was born. Try it for yourself to see why we say it's brewed for a better tomorrow.”
