They also make a few varities that aren't shipped up here, like vienna (sp?) and a few more. I can get mexican coke and Dr Pepper here in San Diego, and yeah, way better, although I love jarritos fruit sodas or the apple sodas more than the coke, good stuff, and re-usable bottles.

From Port Huron eh? I was born and grew up there. Small world.
I used this recipe except I used 7 lbs of light LME instead of a 3.3lb can of Bierkeller and 3 lbs of light DME and I added 8 oz of maltodextrin with my priming sugar. I find all-extract beers have really wimpy heads without adding maltodextrin.
I was amazed that fermenting at 45F that this took 4 months to complete! I've never had any beer take that long! I used an XL pack and stepped it up in a pint of starter so I should have pitched enough yeast.
The beer turned out good, a bit maltier than the original but unlike most homebrewers I'm not a hop head so I enjoy malty beers.
Next time I'm going to back off a bit on the malt and convert part of the LME to more Vienna malt and do a partial mash.
