So I'm drinking my Speckled Heifer partial mash beer that came as a kit from NB. Its been in a keg for about a week and it's carbed up nicely but there's an aftertaste I've been trying to understand. After some research I think it's astringency. While I don't know for sure, that seems to be the taste I'm getting based on descriptions I read online. Considering that it's chilled, kegged, and carbed already, is there anything I can do to improve the flavor? I took about a week to carb it up and sampled it a few times over the week but now that it's fully carbed the off flavor is worse. The cause is probably that it was my first partial mash and I screwed up the temps. Should I just blend it with another beer or can I fix it another way?
