Here is a recipe I've been messing around with on Beer Smith and I'd like you ideas and suggestions. We are trying to match a beer that we found in Switzerland. I originally thought it was a Munich Dunkle but after a little reasearch and some input here I think it may be a dark German Pilsner. It is called Feldschlosschen Dunkle Perle. The Perle we figured came from the hops. Here is a link to a website from the brewer.

Carlsberg Group - Feldschlosschen Dunkle Perle

I have the color close but that is all I can really tell, so that is where you come in. I'm new to brew smith (and brewing for that matter) so any input you have there too I'd appreciate.

Looking decent, but what in the world is chocolate malt doing in there? Not really sure about that (I'm sure someone will have a smart comment about this)
