GF Marzen / Oktoberfest

[elbinwyp]

Hi All! I have a friend who has challenged me with brewing a more "malty" gluten free beer. He has only brewed with gluten free extracts and always done IPA's. I have the ability to mash so am starting to explore grain options. Anyone have thoughts on where to point me for developing an darker/maltier Marzen/Oktoberfest type of recipe?
