Some of its craft beers available on tap being quite popular, in 1987 the establishment started a microbrewery of its own: La Brasserie Le Cheval Blanc. In 1998, it merged with two other microbreweries Les Brasseurs GMT and Les Brasseurs de l'Anse to form Les Brasseurs RJ.

- La Blanche Cheval Blanc, traditional Belgian white, 5%

In 1999, the tavern was renovated and is now also a music venue and an art gallery.[3] As of late 2009, the tavern is the venue for YULBlog's monthly "First Wednesday" gatherings.
