Not sure you can get completely there with extract brewing. Negra Mod is a Vienna Lager which will call for at least 70% Vienna malt in the mash. You wont get the effect by steeping a lb or so of Vienna and mixing with Pale DME.
EDIT - Whoops on my spelling, that was really bad. Sorry!

I brewed an AG clone and it came out pretty good. I didn't proof my yeast by doing a starter so my FG ended up at 1.018 which made it way too sweet and malty. Negra finishes real clean and probly needs to ferment down to 1.012.
Mash: 149 for 75 min. raise to 168, mash out
Sparge: 170 for 1 hour
efficiency: 75%
Yeast: WLP940 - Mexican Lager yeast
OG - 1.058
FG - 1.018 (Target was 1.012, would have got me 6%ABV)
IBU - 25
srm - 14.5
5.22% ABV
What would I do different?
1. Do a starter to proof yeast, 6 viles of old yeast did not perform, and it cost me too much money!
2. Use less of the carafa II, came out darker than expected.
3. Use some pilsner base malt to add some more fermentables or mash for 90 min. Vienna malt doesn't seem to be as fermentable.
4. Probly use different hops, and up the IBU's a bit.
Hope this helps, I will probably attempt this again next summer.

Have any of you had it south of the border? It taste completely different and is incredible...Especially if you are camped out on a sandbar with a beautiful woman.
