grown stronger and we realized that we needed to create our own opportunities. That’s when we started Beadle & Grimm’s, and now Find Familiar Spirits.
Being in Hollywood, where the entertainment industry is always booming, has provided us with unique insights and connections. We’ve had the chance to work with some incredible people, like renowned fantasy and sci-fi illustrator Tyler Jacobson, who created the beautiful artwork for our spirits bottles. We’ve also collaborated with whiskey scientist and master brewer Ale Ochoa to create whiskey blends that perfectly capture the essence of the characters from Dungeons & Dragons.
In fact, it was our love for Dungeons & Dragons that led us down this path. We’ve been playing the game with the same group of friends for over 25 years. It’s been a constant source of joy and escape from the pressures of our careers. We wanted to share that joy with others and create products that enhance the gaming experience.
Starting with Beadle & Grimm’s, we saw the demand for high-quality, premium gaming accessories. Our editions of TTRPG games, created in collaboration with industry giants like Dungeons & Dragons and Critical Role, have been a huge success. We knew that our passion for gaming could translate well into other products, which is why we started Find Familiar Spirits.
With Quest’s End, our debut whiskey line, we’re not just creating a product; we’re creating an entire experience. Each bottle tells a story, with characters like Paladin, Rogue, Warlock, and Dragon. We’ve carefully crafted flavor profiles that reflect each character’s personality, and we’ve even included maps and hit points on the bottles themselves, so as you drink, you become part of the adventure.
But our journey doesn’t stop there. We have big plans for Find Familiar Spirits. In early 2024, we will announce our next fantasy fandom partnership. We want to continually find communities and fan bases that are passionate, fun-loving, and full of joy. We want to bring our unique blend of storytelling and craftsmanship to different worlds and create products that resonate with fans.
And it’s not just about the products; it’s about the community. That’s why we created the comedy series Faster, Purple Worm! Kill Kill!. We wanted to bring the joy and laughter of gaming to the small screen. The show features a rotating cast of talented actors and comedians playing Dungeons & Dragons in an improv-style format. Each episode is unique, with new characters and adventures, but the underlying message is always the same: there’s no wrong way to play the game.
Our journey from Hollywood to the gaming industry has been an incredible one. We’ve found success in creating products that we’re passionate about and that resonate with others. We’ve built a community of fellow gamers who share our love for storytelling and adventure. And most importantly, we’ve found a way to balance our careers with our passion for gaming, creating a fulfilling and joyful life.
So whether it’s through our gaming accessories, our spirits, or our comedy series, we hope to continue bringing joy and excitement to fans all over the world. We believe in the power of storytelling, the magic of gaming, and the importance of finding your own adventure. And we can’t wait to see where our journey takes us next.
