Ok, I really like Rogue's Irish Lager, and I'm trying to find a clone for it. A friend of mine came up with this, but when comparing this recipe to what's on the side of the bottle.... I just don't know. The part where I'm getting hung up is when I look at the malts that Rogue lists and compare it to the recipe I have... they just don't look the same to me. Also, just a heads up, I am an extract brewer (since that will probably change the recipe some).

Thank you in advance for your assistance! :rockin:
