Anyone have the Oct 2009 BYO with the recipe for Weeping Radish black lager clone in it? I seem to have misplaced mine :( and was really looking forward to making this recipe as my first lager. If anyone can hook me up I would greatly appreciate it.
 
Since the recipe was posted in response to my letter, I was obligated to make it. I did (and have the recipe at home), and think it is missing something. Perhaps adding munich to the grain bill and a darker chocolate malt would have done the trick. I will post it tonight.
 
Here is the recipe I brewed. If I were to do it again, I would up the choc malt to .75 and add 2-3 pounds of munich and adjust the pils accordingly:
