  'submit .new-delivery': function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();

    var date = event.target.date.value;
    var brand = event.target.brand.value;
    var description = event.target.description.value;

From Semantic UI dropdown docs, you can clear your dropdown this way:

Template.deliveryForm.rendered = function(){
  $('select.dropdown').dropdown('clear');
}

Hope this works :)

EDIT

Your code, and my example, needs to be wrapped inside Meteor.defer (some refs 1, 2, 3), because the DOM isn't ready during the execution of rendered callback.

Template.deliveryForm.rendered = function(){
  Meteor.defer(function() {
    $('select.dropdown').dropdown('clear');
  });
}

Hope this works now :)
