Cittavecchia White Shark
White Shark is a refreshing Weissbier designed for summer sessions. It presents a hazy, pale straw hue that invites the first sip. The aroma is defined by a delicate yet characteristic yeast profile, prominently featuring banana and hints of tropical fruit notes. On the palate, it strikes a harmonious balance between soft, bready Pilsner malt and a subtle tartness, creating a refreshing sweet-and-acidic interplay. The traditional wheat influence provides a fluffy texture, while the low bitterness ensures high drinkability. It finishes dry and clean, making it an ideal companion for fried appetizers or light summer fare.
Appearance. Pale straw to gold (3-5 SRM). Thick, moussy, long-lasting white head with persistent lacing. Characterized by a distinctive haze from suspended wheat proteins and yeast.
Aroma. Moderate intensity with a primary focus on fermentation byproducts. Distinctive aromas of ripe banana and subtle tropical fruit are present, supported by a light, bready, and grainy wheat malt backbone. Hop aroma is absent, and phenol character like clove is very restrained.
Taste. Initial impression is soft and bready, transitioning into a mix of sweet malt and a light, refreshing acidity. Low bitterness allows the grainy-sweet Pilsner malt and doughy wheat flavors to shine. Esters of banana persist throughout, leading to a well-rounded, dry, and effervescent finish without any harshness.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a creamy, fluffy fullness. High carbonation provides a spritzy, effervescent sensation on the tongue. Alcohol warmth is minimal, and the finish is clean and refreshing.

La Cittavecchia White Shark è dedicata agli squali bianchi che alla fine dell’800 pullulavano nel Golfo di Trieste (città del birrificio), talmente numerosi che pendeva su di loro una taglia, ricompensa per ogni catturato. La White Shark è una birra bianca di frumento, in stile weizen dai caratteristici profumi di banana e frutta tropicale. Il suo sapore è fresco, beverino, un sapiente mix di dolce e acidulo, caratteristica dello stile. Ideale per accompagnare piatti di pesce (fritto o crudo), crostacei, sushi e frutti di mare.
