Het bier werd ontwikkeld door brouwerij Impérial te Anderlecht, die in 1964 sloot. Daarna overgenomen door Lamot te Mechelen. In 1981 werd Lamot overgenomen door Brouwerij Piedbœuf, later Interbrew, later InBev en vanaf 2008 Anheuser-Busch InBev. Vanaf 1994 werd er gestopt met brouwen op de Mechelse locatie. Tegenwoordig wordt het gebrouwen door AB InBev te Leuven.

Classic pale-ale style ’spéciale belge’ taken over from Lamot by (then) Interbrew in the mid-nineties. Locally renowned as "het paardje" (little horse). Creamy, snow white, stable head, colour orange blond to light amber, clear. Nutty malts, dryish with a bit thin mouthfeel in comparison with the other classics in the style, herbal notes (almost a hint of aniseed), otherwise rather one-dimensional. Still quite a good session ale, nonetheless.
