    Might not even be that complicated. They use "Frangelic" in the name and on the bottle and it's a non-alcoholic beverage, so no licensing needed.

    Just use Mountain grown beans and hazelnuts and let things age on the crushed nuts....

    Not much else required.....

    But they clearly came close to the flavor profile of Frangelico for people to infer the use of the liqueur.... :slight_smile:

    I don’t have any links or documentation of support here but the first time this beer came out Whole Foods refused to sell because of artificial flavoring. Make of that what you will.

    Having a pretty big nut allergy, I did research after the last release. I can’t remember the source, but was told it was artificial flavoring. So I tried the beer and it did not have an effect on me.

    Oh yeah forgot to mention this thing is delicious artificial or no! Hits the spot in the way some fake ass hazelnut coffee does when the craving strikes. Sometimes I need that candy gas station concoction in my life!
