This recipe has haunted me since I saw it and I figure it would be a perfect beer to have on cask at a Halloween party:

1939 William Younger XXX
pale malt 5.25 lb 64.42%
crystal malt 60L 0.50 lb 6.13%
mild malt 0.40 lb 4.91%
grits 1.25 lb 15.34%
invert sugar 0.25 lb 3.07%
lactose 0.50 lb 6.13%
liquorice 0.25 oz
Fuggles 90 min 0.50 oz
Fuggles 30 min 0.25 oz
Goldings dry hops 0.25 oz
OG 1037
FG 1014
ABV 3.04
I'm going to sub in flaked maize for the grits, vienna for the mild malt, turbinado for the invert but I was unable to get any liquorice. I have star anise but I have no idea what an appropriate amount would be in such a small beer. Would 1 star at last 5 minutes of boil completely overwhelm it?
Thanks!
