SYDNEY -- As the Father's Day hangover rolls on in, dads across Australia are counting their new pairs of socks.

In a tribute to the old-school Aussie dad, Queensland brewing company Bundaberg Brewed Drinks created a video campaign and competition to showcase the attributes of our beloved men.

They honour the guy who couldn't spell gluten-free, who didn't need GPS, who stood ten-foot tall and sunburn proof, who loved us even if he didn't say it back.

The old-school Aussie dad is an interesting beast. From the red budgie smugglers through to a smokin' barbie, their accessories were varied and awesome. They fed their toddlers beer and got buried in the sand in their down time. They were true blue legends.

Here's a look at the types of old-school dads that make Australia proud:
