According to social media posts, the truck was carrying 2,000 bottles of beer. When it took a sharp turn on the road, the crates started falling off from the luggage-carrying area which was already open. The steel bars installed in the container were unable to stop the beer crates from falling out.

According to an English translation of Cass Beer’s YouTube video descriptor, the company is looking for these “real heroes” who came out and cleaned the road “like it was your job”.
