Known for Pale Ale · Double IPA

Founded in 2015 by Theo Freyne, a Heriot-Watt-trained brewer, DEYA Brewing Company is based in Cheltenham and named after the village of Deià on Mallorca. The brewery specialises in unfiltered, unfined, and unpasteurised hop-forward ales, with hazy pale ales and IPAs at the centre of its output. Steady Rolling Man is its best-known beer and a benchmark for the style in the UK. All DEYA beers are vegan, and the range also extends to pilsners and occasional mixed-fermentation releases.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
