Since he seems like a cool person I think it could be okay to just in person but if not the phone or email may work.  I wouldnt suggest taking him out for a beer though.

Honestly, taking him out for a talk sounds good. Though maybe just taking him some beer home or something and being alone with him seems a bit more intimate and what not. But whatever makes you feel most comfortable. When I told my mom, I sort of got her ready by telling her I needed to talk to her about something important. I didn't really beat around the bush. I just told her I was trans. Your dad seems like an amazing guy. And I think he is hinting towards the trans thing with the man comment. My mom did the same things.
Best of luck and I can't wait to hear how well it goes! Nothing better than having support from a parent. Knowing that they will not stop loving you.

Having a supportive parent definitely is the best!!!!! And I know about the spelling! lol I will write a word and be like "that's sooo not how you spell it!" and i will hit backspace and find a substitute! lol
