Interesting…that’s a pretty nondescript building, as breweries go. Must have been post-Prohibition, when they no longer made breweries extravagant and ornate.

Isn’t Old Dutch also the name of a cleanser? I remember my mother using it in the sixties. These are such wonderful photographs, I really enjoy seeing them – they deserve to be recorded. Thank you for linking me – have put you on my blogroll also.

I was doing a search for old beer names, I am trying to make contact with any beer company that would be willing to donate or provide at a reduced price beer for a charity event that a co-cordinate at Halloween in Pittsburgh PA and I came across your post. i grew up in a small town…Catasauqua PA…we had an old dutch brewery a few blocks away from my home- it was before my time but the facad and shell of the building were there the whole while I was growing up…. I never new it started in new york
again thanks for posting

Old Dutch Brewers, Inc. of Brooklyn does not bare any relation to the one that was located in Pennsylvannia, IIRC. The one in Flatlands section was a POST-prohibition brewery (rare), and benefited from the advances made in refrigeration, that earlier pre-prohibition Brooklyn breweries did not have.
I recently acquired a beer can from Old Dutch Breweries of Brooklyn. It appears to be from the late 50s or early 60s.
