First, note that $1 \in \Lambda^0(E)$ is the only positively-oriented orthonormal basis for $\Lambda^0(E)$. For, suppose that a nonzero scalar $k$ is basis which we can do since $\Lambda^0(E)$ is one-dimensional. Then if $k$ is orthonormal with respect to $g$, $ g(k, k) = 1 \implies |k|^2 = 1 \implies k = \pm 1 $ But, since we require positive orientation this reduces to $k = 1$. So, without loss of generality, we take $1$ as a basis for $\Lambda^0(E)$. Also, to be clear, the $g$ referenced here is inner product on $\Lambda^k(E)$, $k=1, \dots, n$, that is induced by the inner product on $(V, g)$. Perhaps a better notation would be $g_0$.
In any event, the Hodge-$*$ is the unique isomorphism $* \colon \Lambda^0(E) \rightarrow \Lambda^n(E)$ such that $ \alpha \wedge (* \beta) = g(\alpha, \beta)\omega_{E} $ for all $\alpha \in \Lambda^0(E)$. If follows then from the bilinearity and orthonormality of $g$ that \begin{align*} \alpha \wedge (* \beta) &= g(\alpha, \beta)\omega_{E}\\ &= g(\alpha \cdot 1, \beta \cdot 1) \omega_{E}\\ &= \alpha \beta g(1,1) \omega_{E}\\ &= \alpha \beta \omega_{E}. \end{align*} But $\alpha$ is just a scalar so $ \alpha \wedge (*\beta) = \alpha \cdot (* \beta) $ and consequently $ \alpha \cdot (* \beta) = \alpha \beta \omega_E \implies * \beta = \beta \omega_E. $
