    IMO either would make a nice beer. The MO will give you a little more malt presence than standard 2-row. 2-row would be closer to the Pilsner malt.

    Both will be different from the recipe attached.

    I agree that two row would be closest.
    Oktoberfest being a malty style and the amount of Munich and aromatic in the recipe you probably would be fine with the MO either way you will make beer.
