Delirium Café is a bar in Brussels, Belgium, known for its long beer list, standing at 2,004 brands in January 2004 as recorded in the Guinness Book of Records.[1][2] On offer are beers from over 60 countries, including many Belgian beers.[3] The bar's name comes from the beer Delirium Tremens (produced by the Huyghe family brewery), the pink elephant symbol of which also decorates the bar's entrance.
The bar is located in a small alley called the Script error: No such module "Lang"./Script error: No such module "Lang". ("Fidelity Alley"), only a couple of hundred metres from the Grand-Place/Grote Markt (Brussels' main square). The Jeanneke Pis statue is across the street from the entrance.
