Hop BroThe Ikebukuro beer pub, vivo! BEER + DININGBAR, early-tapped CYCAD BREWING's '16 (sixteen)' as the first release for its 16th anniversary, right?
MugiWhat! The first installment of the 16th anniversary is already full-on celebration mode! And the name being '16' makes it so easy to get!
Hop BroExactly. The flavor is a blend of restrained malt and hop aroma that brings to mind orange, making it a pretty easy-drinking finish.
MugiWhat is that! I hear hop aroma a lot, but does it really end up smelling like orange?
Hop BroTotally. Hops are what create a beer's aroma and bitterness, and this is the kind where an orange-like character comes to the front. It's not too bitter, but it still has definition.
MugiOhhh! Then I can see why they call it dry and easy to drink. It's an anniversary beer, but being able to gulp it down sounds amazing!
Hop BroWhat's more, the shop is in the basement on Ikebukuro Sunshine Street, and what's nice is that it's a relaxed space where you can drink at ease. It's well suited for taking your time with a keg that catches your eye.
MugiJust being a basement beer pub is exciting! And they're even handing out commemorative stickers, which gives it a little treasure-hunt vibe!
Hop BroFrom April 22 to 26 it's anniversary week, and in addition to two anniversary beers, they're planning to serve rare beers from breweries they've worked with.
MugiWe've got to go! If the lineup changes, I want to check it now so I don't miss anything, and let's have one more today!

In its post, the beer was described as a dry, easy-drinking brew where restrained malt and an orange-like hop character are in harmony. As a beer tied to the anniversary milestone, it is a straightforward project that puts the number "16" front and center, just as its name suggests.
