Our benchmark 8.10% Northwest Imperial IPA, Sticky Hands, offers a balanced experience of hop character and drinkability, featuring ample additions of sticky, lupulin-packed hops and a full-throttled hop aroma, complemented by a resinous body and a succinct finish. 

Crafted to capture the essence of hops in a well-balanced and impactful way, Sticky Hands launched as a unique offering within the craft beer landscape. Designed to be the best IPA you’ve ever tasted, every time you taste it, the journey it's taken from its very first brew to the beer you taste today is a love letter to hops with innovation, creativity, and experimentation at its core.

Sticky Hands was first brewed in 2012 and released monthly on draft and in 750ml bottles, with a variant rotating every other month. Very rarely would Sticky Hands find its way to beer bars and bottle shops, making its release in Corvallis a special event where people would drive from all over the PNW to wait in line outside our Downtown Pub. We released Sticky Hands in this way for three years, advancing it over time with each subsequent brew. 

With the opening of our Production Brewery in 2015, we began brewing and canning Sticky Hands on a weekly basis. Balance and freshness have been signatures of this bold IPA from the beginning, and with the increase in production, became the ideal representation of what a high-quality beer should look like in today’s market. Wherever you are, you’re guaranteed to find a Sticky Hands that’s less than 90 days old.

Now a year-round beer, Sticky Hands continues to gently evolve. It’s a living thing that we regularly refine with new hop products, exceptional hop varieties we discover at hop selection every fall, and production advancements within our brewery. We trial products and techniques in the beer through consistent R&D, as well as through experimental variants that we release a few times each year.  

Sticky Hands is one of the most drinkable beers in our region, boasting a worldwide reputation as one of the best Imperial IPAs available. Canned fresh, and best before yesterday, Sticky Hands delivers a hop experience like you’ll never forget.
