When New Holland Brewing Co. prepared to launch a new limited-edition collaboration between its iconic Dragon’s Milk brand and Dungeons & Dragons, the goal was to create something that felt authentic, imaginative, and worthy of both fandoms. The campaign needed to unite craft beer enthusiasts and role-playing game fans under one shared world of creativity and adventure.
How could we bring two passionate communities together through a campaign that truly captured the spirit of the game?
Solution
The collaboration between New Holland Brewing, HASBRO, and Dungeons & Dragons was a creative challenge that demanded precision, imagination, and agility. Managing product updates, packaging approvals, and a 10-day review cycle for every asset required careful coordination, but also opened the door to building a campaign as rich and adventurous as the worlds it celebrated.
Our team led the creative concept, digital design, and full campaign execution. We built a cross-platform strategy inspired by the language and lore of the Dungeons & Dragons universe, guided by real Dungeon Masters and fans to ensure every detail felt authentic. Instead of following the typical influencer route, we partnered with a leading D&D podcast, embedding the brand directly into the content players already loved, creating a seamless, credible connection to the community.
Through bold visuals, immersive storytelling, paid and organic social media, and targeted PR outreach, we brought the collaboration to life across every touchpoint. Each asset honored both brands’ heritage, blending craftsmanship and creativity, and the result was a campaign that sold out instantly, sparked nationwide coverage, and became one of the most talked-about launches in the beverage industry that year.
Instant sell-out of 13K beers, 1.5K bourbon gift packs, and 1K dice towers.
3.2M paid impressions and 83K video views, generating national awareness and engagement.
179.3M+ media impressions across 23 placements positioned Dragon’s Milk as a benchmark for creative brand collaborations.
4.7M organic impressions and 4K+ new followers in 2024, with D&D-themed posts leading performance.
