The contest highlights both brands’ shared commitment to quality, craftsmanship and the hardworking people who keep rural communities strong. 

Ontario residents have a chance to take home a brand-new Kubota BX2680 tractor this summer thanks to a new partnership between Beau’s Brewing Co. and Kubota Canada Ltd. 

Beau’s Brewing Co. is an independent Canadian craft brewer founded in Vankleek Hill, Ontario. Since 2006, Beau’s has grown from a local favourite to one of Ontario’s most well-regarded craft breweries. 

Headquartered in Pickering, Ontario, Kubota Canada is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kubota Corporation, a tractor and heavy equipment manufacturer based in Osaka, Japan.

The grand prize features a Kubota BX2680 equipped with an LA344S loader—a compact but powerful machine designed for property maintenance, landscaping and weekend projects. The tractor’s 23.3‑horsepower, 3‑cylinder diesel engine delivers long-term durability, while its garden‑tractor‑sized footprint makes it easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces. 

Beau’s says the partnership is a natural fit. “At Beau’s, we’ve always believed good things are built with care, whether that’s a great beer or a hardworking machine,” said TK Palermo, Senior Manager of Digital Marketing & Partnerships at Beau’s. “Kubota is a natural partner because they share that same commitment to quality, reliability and the people who make communities stronger.” 

Kubota Canada agreed. “This partnership is a great fit,” related Steve Sweetnam, Director of Marketing at Kubota Canada. “Kubota and Beau’s both take pride in developing products for hardworking people, and we’re excited to help make someone’s summer in Ontario a whole lot more memorable.” 

The contest ties in closely with Beau’s flagship Lug Tread Lagered Ale, itself inspired by the tire tread of farm equipment and brewed as a tribute to rural craftsmanship. 

Ontario residents aged 19+ can enter in three ways: by finding a code inside specially marked Lug Tread packs, requesting a code by email, or receiving a PIN with a qualifying Lug Tread purchase at participating bars and restaurants. 

Entries close August 5, 2026, with the winner announced at noon the same day following a random draw and skill‑testing question.
