I recommend that you take a lager extract (or whatever they have) and make a small partial mash with some crystal malt.
You need only to steep the crystal malt in some hot water, 75ºC or so.
For 200 grams of crystal malt you can take 1.0 liter of hot water.
For best result crush the crystal malt in a mortar or a small (coffe)mill or use a mixing rod or household mixer.
Let it steep for 20-30 minutes and remove the crystal malt with a sieve or similar.
Add the liquid to the rest of the liquified extract.
Good luck!
