Bow Rake is the last in the Garden Tool Beer series. In 2022 we have been collaborating with the Dancing Gnome brewery to bring you new and exciting beers and a chance to support Grow Pittsburgh in the process. Each month our collaboration has featured a beer named after a garden tool, with the information provided by us and the can artwork by Camp Copeland Studio. Whether you have acres outside of the city, some raised beds in the suburbs, or a small porch set up in the city, we want to give you the tools you need to succeed, so learn more about the tools and try out these new beers available for a limited time.
About the beer: This 6.2% hazy IPA was brewed with North American Pilsner malt to showcase the effect the grain has on flavor and mouthfeel.
About the tool: The Bow Rake can be used to level soils, pull out larger rocks or debris, and the hefty tines easily break up clumps with a little force. It’s useful any time of year, but in preparing your garden for the winter, it’s great to move and spread mulch to protect perennials or cover empty beds.
