I was looking at doing a Mexican Dark Lager (bit like a Negra Modelo) for my next extract

How's this seem to folks?

0.50 kg Vienna Malt (18.0 EBC) Grain 1 16.3 %
0.20 kg Cara-Pils/Dextrine (3.9 EBC) Grain 2 6.5 %
0.20 kg CaramMunich III (Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L) (118.2 EBC) Grain 3 6.5 %
0.10 kg Black (Patent) Malt (985.0 EBC) Grain 4 3.3 %
0.06 kg Chocolate Malt (886.5 EBC) Grain 5 2.0 %
2.00 kg Light Dry Extract (15.8 EBC) Dry Extract 6 65.4 %
28.00 g Hallertauer Hersbrucker [4.00 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 7 14.7 IBUs
