hopIQ found 10 beers with the same floral and herbal character as Josephi Starckbier. A pale bock brewed in the Pilsner manner for Lent, on sale from mid-February and named after St Joseph's Day on 19 March. Bottom-fermented and filtered, at 16.5 °P it is brilliantly clear and golden with a fine white head. Pilsner malt is the only grain, giving flavours of cereal and a little honey; Saphir aroma hops, with Perle and Hersbrucker, add a floral, herbal note and a light bitterness. Full-bodied and very smooth, with a pleasantly warming finish. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
