Modest Beer

From mild-mannered tax accountant to mild-mannered brewer.

Like many good ventures, Modest Beer was born in a parent’s garage when Chris Morris, a tax accountant by day, brewed a small experimental batch of Kölsch for a friend’s restaurant. The beer was a quick success, pleasing man and spreadsheet alike, inspiring both parties to collaborate long term and for Chris to build a proper brewery.

Within two years Modest moved to a much larger brewery in Randalstown.

'We never set out to brew the best beer in Northern Ireland, but maybe someday we will.'
