Patton's brand Fire Department Coffee added a salted caramel variant to its Skull-Crushing Instant Coffee lineup, building on the Skull-Crushing Instant Espresso that hit Walmart shelves in 2025.
As the Official Coffee of NHRA, Fire Department Coffee stepped up with critical support for first responders and displaced families during the California wildfires.
The firefighter-founded brand — where Patton serves as Senior VP — raised funds via StartEngine, with the campaign closing around September 2025 and targeting up to $4.99M.
The brand debuted its bold instant espresso product at Walmart, marking a major retail expansion milestone for the firefighter-owned company.

Fire department chronicles reaches an audience concentrated in United States primarily through YouTube, and is best activated via long-form YouTube integrations, Instagram Reels and Stories, TikTok branded content. Their sponsorship history skews toward Food & Beverage / Lifestyle, a clear signal of fit for brands in those categories. Demonstrated partners include Fire Department Coffee. Engagement on YouTube runs around 5.0%, which points to an audience better suited to category-relevant, mid-funnel campaigns than to pure-reach buys. The channel's mix of long-form YouTube integrations and Instagram Reels and Stories lets a sponsor choose between short awareness placements and longer, more detailed integrations. Because the audience follows comedy content rather than arriving through untargeted reach, sponsorships that match the channel's subject matter tend to convert more efficiently than broad placements. A consistent, on-topic posting focus gives sponsors a predictable, brand-safe environment, lowering placement risk compared with broad, general-interest channels. Campaigns here are best measured on qualified engagement and consideration within the niche rather than on raw impression volume. For United States-focused brands in Food & Beverage / Lifestyle and related categories, Fire department chronicles offers a defined, creative-fit audience rather than broad, low-intent impressions.
