I over-hopped my amber ale, and the hydrometer samples exhibit a definite astringency. Am I correct in thinking that this will mellow with time?
Astringency is not really the result of overhopping. It probably has to do with ferm temp or under-pitching the yeast. Yes, astringency will fade with time, but it probably wont go away completely.
