Yeah I was going to suggest midnight wheat, carafa special, or some type of debittered black malt. I would remove the special roast but that's just me.

I prefer my saisons pretty light in color. I also use lighter munich (10L) @ about 15-20% which only gets me to the lower SRM limit of 5 I think.
On Tap/Bottled: IPL, Adjunct Vienna, Golden Stout, Honey Lager

I appreciate everyone's input.  As it turns out, my LHBS does have Dark Munich!  $2.50/lb., but problem solved!
