Would a malt bill with equal parts Munich, Vienna, and pale malt be too cloying? Something along the lines of 3 to 4 pounds of each in the recipe. It wouldn't be like throwing 3 pounds of crystal in there, right?
Large amounts of Vienna/Munich malts in recipe.

I have made many beers with Vienna only and one with 40% munich.
So I like your idea.
So I like your idea.
two of the finest beers i've ever tasted were SMaSH ales.
one was 100% vienna with northern brewer
the other was 100% belgian munich with mt. hood
my dunkelweizen recipes are usualy about 40% munich.
remember...people didn't always have specialty malts. These are base malts and are intended to make up the majority of the grist

SMaSH?? Single Malt and Some Hops?
I've done 80% Vienna and wouldn't again but 1/3rd each would be nice.
I've done Vienna Lager (100% vienna malt) and Munich Dunkel (100% dark munich malt, triple decoction) and both are excellent beers. The dunkel is in the 5th month of lagering so I haven't had it carbed but it is TASTY.

Single Malt and Single Hop. Pick one of each and knock yourself out.

munich madness - just kegged - 12 lbs caramunich - 6 lbs 2 row(after i learned caramunich won't convert on its own) 30 litres @ 1.051 got down to 1.012 and is real tasty. used 2.5 ounces of my home grown hallertau.
the head is like a chocolate mouse!

Last fall I did 11.5 # of Light Munich, and Nugget/Hallertau to about 25 IBUs and it was fantastic.
HOLY HELL!!! 12 lbs of caramunich...is it super sweet?? that sounds insane...isn't caramunich basically a crystal malt?

i thought it was going to be my first dumper at first but it got down to 1.012 with good old nottingham and is quite tasty.
awesome...kinda of inspiring...i guess caramunich is a very low crystal so that's why it's not overpowering.
supposedly you can use aromatic as 100% of the grain bill in a beer. now THAT sounds terrifying
