Trying this recipe

I am brewing this recipe tomorrow (Superbowl Sunday 2011). I am using pellets instead of whole hops and Carapils instead of the maltodetrixin. I am also using Wyeast American Ale Yeast. Wish me luck. I will let you know how it turned out in about a week in a half after I keg this beer.
How did it go?
