Delirium Delirio
By Huyghe · Belgium
The 0.3% member of the Delirium family, from Brouwerij Huyghe, the Belgian brewery behind Delirium Tremens. Huyghe calls it an “Alcohol free Blond beer” with spicy and fruity notes, and it won bronze at the World Beer Awards 2026.
At 0.3% 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 Delirio?
Delirio is the alcohol-free version of Delirium, as Huyghe puts it, launched in October 2024. Huyghe said then that it took a year and a half to develop, working with an alternative yeast that makes no alcohol of its own, Made-in.be reported. The finished beer is 0.3% ABV, in 330ml bottles. Huyghe makes three beers at 0.3%: Delirio, Paranoia Alcohol Free and Paranoia Rouge.
Huyghe describes a light blonde beer with a fine foam head, a light malty aroma with spicy and fruity notes, and a “spiced full-bodied and round flavour with a fruity and hoppy aftertaste”. Wise Bartender and Dry Drinker both say it pours clear; we used to say it had a gentle haze.
Wise Bartender lists water, barley malt, hops and yeast, and says it contains no animal products; Huyghe says it’s brewed from several grains but doesn’t list them. It isn’t gluten-free. Huyghe publishes no nutrition figures; a Dutch shop gives 19 kcal per 100ml.
It won bronze in the No & Low Alcohol pale beer class at the World Beer Awards 2026, according to the published winners list, and Huyghe says it won gold at the 2026 London Beer Competition. On 28 October 2026 Wise Bartender had it at £2.90 a bottle. We score it 8.0.
