I brewed up this "Mexican Vienna Lager" and plan on entering it in competition (my first!):
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/mexican-lager.254955/
The recipe says SRM is between 6 and 7.
Beersmith calculates it as 5.5 on my equipment and based on an SRM chart that I have it probably is about that.
2A International Pale Lager tops out at 6.
2B International Amber Lager starts out at 7.
Right now I am entered as 2B because "Low to medium-low corny sweetness is optional, but not a fault" and there is a pound of corn in the grist.
Any recommendations from those with background in competition?
