I've got one lagering now that is:

56.1% Weyermann Munich II
36.6% Vienna
7.3% aromatic

First time doing this, so final product yet to be tasted, but gravity sample was spot on for what I was going for.
After judging German beers at a competition last fall, I knew I didn't want any crystal/caramel malt of any kind. The beers were all too sweet and not "German" enough tasting.
That sound perfect. What IBU and how many additions? 60 or 90 minute boil?

Every year I always say Sam Adams keeps getting sweeter and sweeter.

Thanks!
I targeted 24IBU hallertau mittelfrueh at 60min as the only hop addition. Standard 60min boil; didn't do a long boil or decoction since it was 95 the day I brewed it, lol.
