According to one guide, "A yellow cortina covers the gills of the immature fruitbodies, breaking and shriveling to leave fragments around the rim of the cap and around the stipe." I think they're just making that up. "Fragments of cortina around the Stipe" sounds suspiciously like a re-make of that Sledgehammer video.

Some are said to contain psilocybin, but they are also hideously bitter, and may contain a range of other neurotoxins, and there are some things even I won't eat. Now using them to flavour beer, that's another matter.

Looks like the solution is to have the local shaman eat them and see if the psychoactive agent is passed through the urine. That's the easy-peesy way to get piss-drunk.
Also, too...
Be careful ...
