Babeleir La Tribu de N.A.
By Babeleir · Belgium
An alcohol-free hoppy ale, 0.4%, from Babeleir, a micro-brewery in Namur: “Un mélange de fruits tropicaux, d’agrumes et de notes de pin”, a blend of tropical fruit, citrus and pine, the brewer says. Hopped with Simcoe, Citra and Mosaic.
At 0.4% ABV, this isn’t alcohol-free under UK guidance, which keeps the term for 0.05% or less. We list it with alcohol-free beers, as UK shops do. How UK labels work

What is La Tribu de N.A.?
Babeleir is a micro-brewery in Namur, Belgium, created by Jean-Benoît Castelain in 2022, it says; the company behind it, BABELEIR SRL, has been registered since December 2024. La Tribu de N.A. is its only alcohol-free beer, and part of its permanent range.
Babeleir promises “Tout le goût houblonné d’une IPA”, all the hoppy taste of an IPA, at 0.4%, with Simcoe, Citra and Mosaic hops and 15 IBU: first a wave of tropical fruit, it says, then pine notes that add a resinous, slightly bitter touch. The Alcohol Free Co describes tropical fruit, citrus and pine resin, with a lightly bitter finish and “more punch than a standard lager”.
Nobody publishes its calories that we could find. We haven’t scored it yet.
