It's definitely his team publishing it, but it's official merchandise sold on his campaign website and he drinks out of it to advertise it: https://shop.joebiden.com/dark-roast-mug/

Biden isn't aware of a lot of things- person, place, time- but he definitely knows about Dark Brandon and personally uses it as a publicity thing.

HOOOOWWWW does this asshole still not have a single issue or policy listed on his campaign website?! Like, not even anything about first term accomplishments. Not even some vague building back better bullshit. Not even anything promoting his own fucking party which he's the leader of. It's ridiculous.

Meanwhile Trump's website has a full spread, including a "mission" page and two types of issues pages, plus a "news" page where some of the "stories" are just dunks on Brandon.

I appreciate that the 404 screen if you do manually search for issues is Dark Brandon trying to sell you a t-shirt.

The "if this were Trump doing this" thing is touching the Earth's inner core at this point but we'd never hear the end of it if he were the one with nothing but donation links and a merch shop on his website.
