Description
DEYA Brewing Company is an independent brewery in Cheltenham, UK. We focus on hoppy beers, lagers, traditional UK styles and mixed fermentation ales. We strive to make world class beer.
Theo founded DEYA in 2015 having become obsessed with American beer and beer culture. In January 2016, Theo picked up the keys to a 4,000ft2 industrial unit in Cheltenham. Once the 10bbl brewery kit was installed, the burgeoning DEYA team dedicated themselves to producing the most delicious pale ales, IPAs and hoppy beers that they could. In 2017, following more national and international acclaim, brewing capacity is doubled with the addition of three 40HL fermentation vessels. In March 2018, a 1000 cans per hour canning line was purchased to complement the four new 40HL fermentation vessels that were to be added in October. This move takes capacity to 3,500HL. In 2019 year we are expanding into a new 25,000 sq/ft premises and installing a bespoke 40hl 4 vessel brewhouse allowing us to significantly increase capacity.
We take a holistic approach to business, striving to be the best employer we possibly can be, while operating in a fair, sustainable and human driven way.
Keep on Crocin’

Taste comprises toffee, chocolate, marshmallow, light spice.
Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a kiss of booze.
A little stuck in 3rd gear for an impy and lacking depth.

Not bad. Has pleasant fruity hop character, semi-ripe citrus, sweet bready pale malts, minimal bitterness. A little sweet in the aftertaste, a little grave, ripe lemon. Drinks fine for an NA.

100ml draught at The Mall Tavern. Deep black body, shiny naked surface, poor lacing. Attractive on the nose with dark chocolate malts to the fore, nicely roasted. Well mixed taste profile of prunes, vanilla chocolate, and a drop of nuts. Smoothly, long lived roasted finish. Well bodied. Good drinking. (Kensington, London 01.03.2026).

On tap at Ebenezers, Crewe. Pours a hazy gold with a small creamy off-white head, good lacing and fairly high carbonation. There’s tropical fruit, grapes and grapefruit in the aroma. In the mouth it is mainly sweet, but with a little sharpness. Citrus and tropical fruit are the main flavours, but also hints of pine, lemon and lychee. Finish is slightly dry. This is reasonable but undistinguished.
