Beskydy will see a unique competition between carriers carrying a barrel of beer on their back

„Radegast Carrier from Beskydy is a unique competition for real men. To compete means that one has to be better than usual, has to sacrifice himself for the team and has to trust his buddies. All teams are winners, no matter how fast they arrive at the finish line,” the manager of the Radegast brand, Pavel Kmínek, explained about the main point of the competition.

All teams, which will see the finish line on top of Lysá hora in the 4 hour limit, can look forward to 100 Radegast beers as a reward for their hard work. The fastest team can also look forward to 400 beers and a special cup. Forty teams will compete in the Radegast Carrier from Beskydy competition. All information about qualification is at www.radegast.cz.

Radegast Carrier from Beskydy was, after last year’s success, further expanded, Pavel Kmínek, describes: „Interest in participating in the Radegast Carrier from Beskydy is huge again this year. That is why we decided to have two more competitions this year, one in Olomouc and one in Zlín.”
