He has some friendly-dad-vibe warmth to him, he's very plainspoken, loves his "I grew up in a town of 400 people, I know the midwest" sort of rhetoric, and he also has a bit of fire to him in terms of the ability to be an attack dog where needed. Purely as a candidate I think he's the best option - clearly the winner of the "seems like a guy you'd have a beer with" test.

If I’ve learned one thing in life it’s that relatability is just so valuable in connecting with people. Look at Clinton and bush, they were just able to come across as people you’d have a beer or a bbq with.
Tim Walz is the guy that can connect with boomers, blue-collar and undecideds across red areas in a way that none of the others can. He seems like such a good counter to Harris and other Democrats.
