Thinking of taking a good dry stout and splitting it into 2- 1 gallon batches and a 2 gallon batch to keg. I would do a cold press espresso in the 2 gallon, some licorice in one of the gallon jugs and a vanilla bean in the other. Would you use anise extract, brewers licorice, or start anise pods and how much in 1 gallon? And would you go with Madagascar beans or truly awesome Mexican vanilla extract for the other gallon? I'm leaning on one split bean and a half stick of brewers licorice. The 2 gallons is also up for ideas, like licorice, some ginger, sassparilla root......kinda root beer ish. What do you guys think?

Sasparilla is an awful ingredient. It's very hard to overcome the medicine taste it imparts.
