Windhoek Light has announced its first South African sponsorship in more than five years. The award-winning light beer is now the official beer partner of Stillwater Sports and has signed up to co-sponsor 10 multisport \u2013 trail running, mountain biking and swimming \u2013 races across South Africa over a year.<\/p>\n

The first race of 2015 in the sponsorship series is the TOTALSPORTS XTERRA Buffelspoort presented by REHIDRAT\u00ae SPORT, an off road triathlon taking place this weekend, 24 and 25 January 2015 in the North West Province.<\/p>\n

\u201cWindhoek Light is a brand of no compromise and therefore we are very selective about what and who we support. We are very excited about the growth of multisport in South Africa and have been looking for an opportunity to support these athletes. That\u2019s why we\u2019re delighted to partner with Stillwater Sports, a company that has impressed us with their unwavering commitment to the growth of multisport; their professionalism and their values of no compromise which we really resonate with,\u201d says Alan Roberts, Windhoek Beer Marketing Manager at brandhouse.<\/p>\n

Windhoek Beer allows discerning beer lovers to enjoy quality beer brewed in the German Reinheitsgebot tradition, whether it be lager, draught or light beer, Roberts explains. It contains only three pure ingredients, malted barley, hops and water. It is the first beer in South Africa to have received the Heart Foundation stamp of approval.<\/p>\n

\u201cWindhoek Light is the only light beer in South Africa that is light in both alcohol AND kilojoules, but still tastes like a full-flavoured beer,\u201d says Roberts.<\/p>\n

\u201cWindhoek Light is therefore a lifestyle choice for people who want to live an active life, and after a long day of training, reward themselves with a crisp, light beer that tastes like full-bodied beer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Windhoek Light is the official beer sponsor of the following Stillwater Sports events:<\/p>\n
