I'm getting ready to brew a licorice beer and I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for using licorice or star anise in a beer. I'll likely make a dark beer with the anise used right at whirlpool, but I'm unsure of the amount to use and potential bitterness produced from the spice.
Any suggestions welcome,
Thanks,
