They are a different breed of draft horse, but are essentially the same
thing. In fact, at one time Coors maintained a stable of Belgians to pull
its beer wagons, no doubt a flash in the pan promo to imitate Bud. I saw
the whole team and rig at a local rodeo. Beautiful animals, palamino
colored and all weighing in excess of 1 ton each.
