Summer Cocktail Program – Featuring The Oakton Orange Crush

At Settle Down Easy Brewing Co. – Oakton Tasting Room, the Oakton Orange Crush has become more than just a cocktail — it is a signature experience that captures the laid-back energy of summer in Northern Virginia. Inspired by the legendary beachside crush drinks made famous along the Mid-Atlantic coast, the Oakton Crush brings its own local identity to the community, blending fresh citrus flavors, refreshing spirits, and a fun social atmosphere that keeps guests coming back.

Served ice-cold in the iconic orange metal “solo-style” cup, the Oakton Crush is bright, refreshing, and built for warm afternoons, live music nights, and gathering with friends on the patio. Fresh-squeezed oranges provide the foundation of the drink, balanced with crisp citrus notes and a smooth finish that pairs perfectly with craft beer, barbecue, seafood, and summer favorites. It is approachable, easy to enjoy, and designed to embody the welcoming spirit of The Oakton Tasting Room.

What makes the Oakton Crush special is not only the drink itself, but the atmosphere surrounding it. At The Oakton Tasting Room, guests are encouraged to slow down, connect with neighbors, and enjoy a sense of local community. The cocktail has quickly become a recognizable symbol of the venue — a conversation starter, a photo-worthy tradition, and a staple of seasonal events and celebrations.
