The establishment published a statement on its website acknowledging that it “certainly faced unprecedented challenges and we have all muddled through these tough times. Unfortunately we still have a rough road ahead, and with that and everyone’s safety in mind, we have decided to temporarily close the Dutch starting next week until spring.”

The temporary closing of the Dutch Ale House follows the news that two popular Hudson Valley breweries, Brewster”™s Bull & Barrel Brewery and the Pine Island Brewing Co., have permanently closed their respective operations amid the ongoing pandemic.
