Vivo! BEER+DININGBAR, a craft beer pub in Higashi-Ikebukuro, Tokyo, has announced the tap opening of Kanpai! Brewing’s Dangozaka Imperial Stout 2026.

The imperial stout is brewed with 10 types of malt, creating a complex and deep flavor profile. Its malt-driven body and roasted character make it a beer to enjoy slowly, while observing how its expression develops as it warms in the glass.

Imperial stout pairs naturally with rich foods, grilled meats, salty dishes, and chocolate-based desserts. Vivo! is also featuring an anchovy and soft-boiled egg pizza as part of its seasonal moon-viewing menu, offering an appealing pairing option for the beer’s dark malt character.

Located in the basement of Nanatomi Building in Higashi-Ikebukuro, Vivo! combines a broad craft beer selection with carefully prepared food. The pub is open from 4 p.m. on weekdays, from 3 p.m. on Saturdays, and from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Sundays and public holidays. Check the venue’s official channels for the latest tap status and closing days before visiting.
