'Zubr Brewery has a strong tradition since this year we're celebrating the 146th anniversary of setting the cornerstone of our brewing company. All this time we've been brewing the best beer following the traditional recipe and from the products of the highest quality. We won the most awards in the beer competition Pivex, becoming the most decorated brewing company in the Czech Republic, moreover, we were named the brewery of the quarter century. Even though our top priority is our customer's satisfaction, these awards confirm that we do know how to make beer of the highest quality. We're glad to become partners of Barum Zlín, which has wonderful reputation,' Ing. Tomáš Pluháček said, the director of Zubr Brewery a.s.

And motorsport fans can also be happy about this cooperation. Now, they can participate in various games and win way more than just a beer.
