Block 15 Adding Sticky Hands: Hang Ten & Space Candy Cans

Today I bring you some exciting release news from Block 15 Brewing in Corvallis, Oregon:

Sticky Hands: Hang Ten
Hop Experience Ale | 8.10%

Sticky Hands: Hang Ten, a limited-edition variant of our Hop Experience Ale, will be available on draft only at Block 15 locations starting this Friday. Ride this wave back to 2015! This 8.10% tubular throwback revives our legendary recipe from a decade ago—the very first batch brewed on our 20BBL production system. Smooth and balanced, it delivers bold notes of pine resin and ripe pineapple. Try it side-by-side with today’s Sticky Hands to see the difference!


For over three years, Sticky Hands was developed on our 7BBL downtown pub brewhouse and released monthly on draft and in 750ml bottles in limited quantities. (Who remembers waiting in line for this?) This week’s special release brings back the recipe that marked a turning point—the shift to our 20BBL system and weekly Sticky Hands releases. This extended the reach of our Imperial IPA, and was a pivotal moment for our love letter to hops.

Space Candy
Hazy IPA | 7.30%

Space Candy lands today at Block 15 locations. This 7.30% Hazy IPA pushes the balance between dank and juicy, delivering notes of ripe mango and apricot in a distinctly Block 15-style package.


Originally released in 2023, Space Candy is brewed with a galaxy of unique hop products. Comet, Galaxy, and Apollo hops orbit a silky, lush body, bringing tropical, dank, and piney character that’ll blast your palate into outer space.

About Block 15 Brewing:

Block 15 was conceived by local beer lovers Nick and Kristen Arzner. After years of traveling, brewing, cooking, and dreaming, they were inspired to share these passions with their local community. Block 15 Restaurant & Brewery was created to offer Corvallis unique, from-the-source artisan beer alongside handmade pub food produced from local ingredients—all served in a friendly, casual atmosphere.

Since opening in 2008, Block 15 has grown to include a production brewery & Taproom in South Corvallis, a Downtown Pub (where it all started), a Northwest meets European-inspired restaurant, Caves Corvallis, and a Distribution Team for the PNW. Our family has grown to over one hundred hard-working individuals that positively reflect our community. Over the years, we have stayed true to our initial vision while evolving in the endless pursuit of the perfect pint, plate of food, and space to share it in.
