Figo
Figo is Galway Bay's Italian-style pilsner at 4.5 %. It started as a trial batch in the brewery's lager discovery series and has since joined the regular line-up. The model is the Italian reading of German pilsner: more hops late in the process, which gives a pronounced hop character and a soft floral aroma from German varieties. More than 40 days of lagering leave a very smooth finish, and the beer drinks crisp.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Figo
Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.
The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.
Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.

What is a Italian Pilsner?
Pilsners are crisp golden lagers with 4–5.5% ABV and IBU 25–45. Defined by spicy, floral Saaz hops over a light malt backbone — bright carbonation and a dry bitter finish.
