Despite its name, Dawes Brewery’s star product was a blonde ale.

When the brewery was founded, it produced just two beers: Lachine Ale and Lachine Porter. Over time, it added other sorts of beer. The most popular was Black Horse, the company’s flagship brew, which was a bestseller from the late 1800s until 1952. The black horse that served as the brand logo appeared on everything from bottle labels to ads to promotional items, posters and billboards.
