I know that temperature affects sweetness, i.e. the colder something is, the less sweet it will taste. My question is if the opposite is true for bitterness? I just took a taste of my red ale and it actually seems to be more hoppy than it was when I tasted it at bottling. This isn't a bad thing, and this beer is exactly like I wanted it. I'm just surprised as I'd alwys heard that hop bitterness decreases over time.
