hint request - anchorhead

I have just talked to the bum, showed him the skull and he wants an amulet to part with the key. I have no idea what they is for, but I think I need it.

Can I get some kind of hint to where I find the amulet he craves?

Not much action here, apparently…

Isn’t Anchor Steam a beer?

Hey, how many games are there that begins with “Anchor”?

Now I am curious.

sigh

Yes, that is a beer. I mean, of course, Anchorhead.

It turned out I had missed one location when I mapped the town, and I found the twisty back alley and the new age shop.
