Discovery’s Moonshiners returns with an episode that blends a nostalgic trip down a notorious bootleg route with some arguably questionable distilling experiments. Tickle and his crew dust off a 400-mile route from the 1980s, aiming to revive a piece of moonshining history. Of course, no Moonshiners adventure is complete without a hiccup, and this time it comes in the form of spilled shine, leading to a tense encounter with law enforcement. Will they outrun the long arm of the law or will their nostalgic run end in a bust?
Meanwhile, Richard, never one to shy away from a risky recipe, gets experimental with his latest batch. His latest foray into fermentation involves, of all things, mold. This unconventional ingredient promises either a flavor sensation or a full-blown disaster. One might wonder if he’s channeling a penicillin breakthrough or simply courting a visit from the health inspector.
Not to be outdone in the oddity department, Tim aims to sweeten his sales figures with a honey-infused moonshine. The goal: a lucrative buzz around his latest concoction. Whether the sweetness translates to profit remains to be seen, but the sheer audacity of the endeavor earns points for creativity. Viewers might find themselves questioning whether they’d sample the result or stick with a more conventional libation.
Moonshiners airs Tuesdays at 8:00 PM on Discovery.
