Other than that though have you guys made a American style lager before? That's pretty much what you're trying to do and adding the cherrys may over power the beer the trick is to do it just enough so it's not too sweet.

I fully expect it to be terrible, I know. but keep in mind this whole project is in no way meant to be taken seriously. Neither of us actually drink malt liquor.
We may just do 5 gallons instead and use the other bucket and carboy for something good. Also, we're going to have to use ale yeast since I don't have the means to facilitate a refrigerated lager-style fermentation.
As far as the cherry flavor goes, our local brew shop is staffed with fantastic geniuses and they have never led me astray. I usually tell them what I want to make and they write out a recipe for me. I know they carry various fruit extracts meant specifically for brewing and I'm sure they can adjust the recipe to our desired level of sweetness.
