Even with that, it will impact it. Might want to add some oats or something to compensate.

Yeah, I added about 1/4lb extra flaked barley to compensate for that. I'm flying by the seat of my pants here, so who knows how it's going to turn out.
I've made the same Irish Lager before and it was AWESOME. I'm hoping the PBJ profile makes it even more interesting. It's not a beer you would drink 10 pints of, but more one at a time type thing.
I was pretty paranoid with the PBJ and added it into a brewsack with my hops that I boiled into the last 20 minutes of the wort. I didn't want a lot of trub, and I think it might have backfired a little. The PBJ really clumped up, and didn't saturate through the entire amount in the sack (when I dumped it half of it was still dry).
Now I'm wondering if I should dry hop the primary, or just see what happens. I used an entire jar of PB2 and most recipes call for 2 jars boiled into the wort, so I might dump one in and see what happens.
The only good news here is my wife is so annoyed with the smell of my worts that she has given me a go ahead for a home brew stand.
