Don't know about that, but where I'm currently working, they have a very
lightweight full size handtruck that's most made of a composite plastic
material (the actual handle & flat "fork" are steel)- one can easily
pick it up with one hand and lift it onto a truck tailgate. (I work at
a volunteer organization formerly with all female employees). A bit of
adaptation, and you could easily make a hook or strap for holding the
keg and IIRC correctly, it comes apart with a coupla wrenches/sockets
(or convert to butterfly nuts). A lot cheaper than that $au300 (that's
about $220, right?) one and usuable as a "real" handtruck-(rent it to
your neighbors!). I've seen other women "customers" arrive with the
same truck, so I'm guessing they're common enough. Will get the brand
name today if you're interested.
