Negra Modelo
From what I understand, many of the Mexican beers are of a style that was brought to the region by German immigrants. Many are similar to Vienna style lagers. Vienna style is similar to Marzen/Oktoberfest. Vienna is considered lighter in color and weaker in alcohol then the latter. The mexican beer would naturally change over time giving rise to Negra Modelo and others. I would recommend looking through the Vienna style.
Clone Modelo
I have seen a clone recipe for Modelo dark in a book called "clone brews" I think it was $5.00.Authors-Tess and Mark Szamtulski and PublisherSorey books. Copyright 1988.
