Hi all.
This is my first attempt at creating my own recipe.
I want something along the lines of Paulaner's Octoberfest Marzen.
I want to brew an extract Oktoberfest that I don't have to lager.
I have looked to EdWort's for inspiration ( https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f63/bee-cave-brewery-oktoberfest-ale-38880/ )
I would also like suggestions for an alternative DRY yeast that I could use.
Please let me know your thoughts.

More Info:
I also found this on another forum, which is purported to be an email response from Paulaner...
"The marzen beer is a typical beer for the south bavarian region and is brewed with more than 70% of dark barley malt (munich malt type) an 30% of pilsner barley malt.
The Paulaner brewery have more than 14 malt suppliers which are producing the malt after our special quality guide line.
Hop: all Paulaner beer types are produced with 100% hop from the "Hallertau". The varieties are Hallertauer Tradition (fine aroma hop), and hallertauer taurus (bitter hop)"
THANKS!
