Dierks Bentley shared a few throwback photos on Instagram with a heartfelt message about his late father on Wednesday (June 1). The day marked a decade since Bentley lost his dad, and the country hitmaker reflected on the father-son duo’s relationship.

“Funny how a good cold beer has always had the same effect on me!” Bentley quipped in his caption of the photos that appear to show him taking a sip from his dad’s can of beer. “Dad past away ten years ago today. Think about him every day. Find myself wanting a little more advice now than I wanted back then!”

The “Beers On Me” singer added that his father was the first person to introduce him to country music. Bentley recalled why his dad loved the genre, and wished his father could have had more time with his own children:

“My dad is the one that initially turned me on to country music, just by listening to it in the car. I remember him saying he liked that even if you didn’t know the song, if it was written right, you could still sing along and guess some of the words. Miss him, wish the kids could have had a little more time with Granddude. Thanks for being a good dad….Dad!”

Bentley’s Instagram followers were quick to send love, appreciate his “beautiful” message and note the striking resemblance between the father and son. See Bentley’s photos and message about his dad here:
