1
00:00:01,111 --> 00:00:02,277
Yeah, I do.
2
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:04,746
[narrator] this time on
master distiller...
3
00:00:04,748 --> 00:00:06,515
Gonna build a little
family recipe,
4
00:00:06,517 --> 00:00:07,649
your recipe.
5
00:00:07,651 --> 00:00:09,117
[narrator] three moonshiners
6
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:12,421
with over 10 generations
of moonshine legacy
7
00:00:12,423 --> 00:00:14,890
will put their heritage
to the test.
8
00:00:14,892 --> 00:00:16,158
Show us that recipe
9
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,627
that the regular normal people
never get to taste.
10
00:00:18,629 --> 00:00:20,829
[narrator] recreating
family recipes
11
00:00:20,831 --> 00:00:23,298
going back
more than a century.
12
00:00:23,300 --> 00:00:25,400
Anybody wanna borrow
some damn muscadines?
13
00:00:25,402 --> 00:00:26,435
I've got plenty.
14
00:00:26,437 --> 00:00:27,869
[narrator] it's josh owens...
15
00:00:27,871 --> 00:00:29,037
Yes lord.
16
00:00:29,039 --> 00:00:30,338
[narrator] ...Versus
daniel maner...
17
00:00:30,340 --> 00:00:32,307
I hope that ain't white gas.
18
00:00:32,309 --> 00:00:33,642
[narrator] ...Versus
mike cockrell...
19
00:00:33,644 --> 00:00:35,477
Let's get a little fire in it.
20
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,879
[narrator] ...To see whose
family tradition
21
00:00:37,881 --> 00:00:39,181
comes out on top.
22
00:00:39,183 --> 00:00:41,183
All of them are
gonna be great, I know that.
23
00:00:41,185 --> 00:00:43,985
I see a hard decision
in our future.
24
00:00:45,089 --> 00:00:46,288
[narrator] across the country,
25
00:00:46,290 --> 00:00:48,557
a handful of expert distillers
26
00:00:48,559 --> 00:00:51,193
are heirs to
a centuries old tradition.
27
00:00:51,195 --> 00:00:53,128
[rock music playing]
28
00:00:53,130 --> 00:00:55,430
[narrator] some operate
on the legal side,
29
00:00:55,432 --> 00:00:59,134
others practice their craft
beyond the reach of the law.
30
00:00:59,636 --> 00:01:02,270
Now, three notorious shiners
31
00:01:02,272 --> 00:01:04,406
will battle for family legacy.
32
00:01:04,408 --> 00:01:05,574
Smoked rye.
33
00:01:05,576 --> 00:01:07,209
You either love it
or you hate it.
34
00:01:07,211 --> 00:01:09,711
[narrator] judged
by a jury of their peers
35
00:01:09,713 --> 00:01:11,146
and guest judge,
36
00:01:11,148 --> 00:01:12,447
danielle parton
37
00:01:12,449 --> 00:01:14,549
who knows a lot about legacy
38
00:01:14,551 --> 00:01:16,184
and moonshine.
39
00:01:16,186 --> 00:01:18,086
[danielle] that's a technique
I ain't never seen,
40
00:01:18,088 --> 00:01:19,554
I'll give you that much.
41
00:01:19,556 --> 00:01:20,922
[narrator] they'll go
head to head
42
00:01:20,924 --> 00:01:22,691
in a series of challenges...
43
00:01:22,693 --> 00:01:24,659
Josh, you're gonna
burn your hand there.
44
00:01:24,661 --> 00:01:25,727
Oh [bleep].
45
00:01:26,096 --> 00:01:26,661
Josh?
46
00:01:26,663 --> 00:01:27,796
I got problems.
47
00:01:27,798 --> 00:01:29,631
I gotta hole in my cap.
48
00:01:29,633 --> 00:01:32,267
[narrator] ...To determine
whose jar of history...
49
00:01:32,269 --> 00:01:34,102
Oh god! What
am I gonna do now?
50
00:01:34,104 --> 00:01:36,605
[narrator] ...Will earn
backwoods bragging rights.
51
00:01:36,607 --> 00:01:38,640
And this little fellow's
at stake.
52
00:01:38,642 --> 00:01:40,408
Put on your mantle
as a reminder
53
00:01:40,410 --> 00:01:42,244
that you kicked
everybody's ass.
54
00:01:42,246 --> 00:01:45,313
[rock music playing]
55
00:01:47,384 --> 00:01:50,452
[country music playing]
56
00:02:00,864 --> 00:02:02,697
well men, welcome back.
57
00:02:02,699 --> 00:02:05,167
We're gonna put you
through something fierce.
58
00:02:05,169 --> 00:02:07,002
You know the deal,
you boys been here before,
59
00:02:07,004 --> 00:02:09,037
y'all competed, y'all winners.
60
00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:10,805
We're gonna build
a little family recipe,
61
00:02:10,807 --> 00:02:11,973
your recipe.
62
00:02:11,975 --> 00:02:13,642
[mark ramsey] you're
well aware of the fact that
63
00:02:13,644 --> 00:02:17,312
liquor stores shelves are
full of moonshine these days.
64
00:02:17,314 --> 00:02:18,413
There are some
65
00:02:18,415 --> 00:02:20,315
that you can't get
off those shelves,
66
00:02:20,317 --> 00:02:23,251
there are some that just
have to come from a jar
67
00:02:23,253 --> 00:02:24,386
from the backwoods.
68
00:02:24,388 --> 00:02:27,322
Passed down recipes from
generation to generation
69
00:02:27,324 --> 00:02:29,257
and each generation
improves somewhat,
70
00:02:29,259 --> 00:02:31,593
so that's
your challenge today.
71
00:02:31,595 --> 00:02:33,161
[tim smith] show us
that recipe
72
00:02:33,163 --> 00:02:36,131
that the regular normal people
never get to taste.
73
00:02:36,133 --> 00:02:37,666
Everybody's fixing to see it.
74
00:02:38,902 --> 00:02:40,335
[digger manes] then
y'all gonna get
bragging rights
75
00:02:40,337 --> 00:02:42,170
that you kicked
everybody else's asses
76
00:02:42,172 --> 00:02:43,605
if you happen to win.
77
00:02:43,607 --> 00:02:45,240
But on to of that,
78
00:02:45,242 --> 00:02:46,841
you get this little trophy.
79
00:02:46,843 --> 00:02:48,944
-Hell yeah!
-Put on your mantle
as a reminder
80
00:02:48,946 --> 00:02:50,579
that you kicked
everybody's ass.
81
00:02:50,581 --> 00:02:51,947
That gonna be all right.
82
00:02:51,949 --> 00:02:53,114
[daniel] it's a little
bootlegger truck
83
00:02:53,116 --> 00:02:54,382
with a keg in the back of it.
84
00:02:54,384 --> 00:02:56,618
Man, I'd love to have it,
old thing on my mantle
85
00:02:56,620 --> 00:02:58,286
above my fireplace.
86
00:02:58,288 --> 00:03:00,155
No fighting between you two,
87
00:03:00,157 --> 00:03:01,223
no more broken bones.
88
00:03:01,225 --> 00:03:03,191
You've done enough this month.
89
00:03:03,193 --> 00:03:05,126
You got one hour
to get this mash built,
90
00:03:05,128 --> 00:03:06,461
five days to ferment it,
91
00:03:06,463 --> 00:03:08,530
then we'll see
y'all back here.
92
00:03:08,532 --> 00:03:10,165
Your one hour starts...
93
00:03:10,500 --> 00:03:11,233
Now.
94
00:03:11,235 --> 00:03:12,367
Good luck boys.
95
00:03:14,204 --> 00:03:16,671
Oh hell, mike, put that
bucket of kerosene in there.
96
00:03:16,673 --> 00:03:18,573
I hope that ain't white gas.
97
00:03:19,643 --> 00:03:21,409
Let's get a little fire in it.
98
00:03:21,612 --> 00:03:22,811
Yes lord.
99
00:03:24,548 --> 00:03:26,114
I recently broke my foot,
100
00:03:26,116 --> 00:03:27,082
so I'm sitting here
101
00:03:27,084 --> 00:03:29,117
with a freaking
purple foot right now.
102
00:03:29,119 --> 00:03:31,019
My doctor told me not to come.
103
00:03:31,021 --> 00:03:32,787
He told to me to
keep my foot elevated,
104
00:03:32,789 --> 00:03:33,888
and keep it on ice
105
00:03:33,890 --> 00:03:35,991
and I'm back out here at work,
doing what I do.
106
00:03:35,993 --> 00:03:37,325
[daniel maner] are you
having fun yet?
107
00:03:37,327 --> 00:03:38,526
-Oh yeah,
-[daniel laughs]
108
00:03:38,528 --> 00:03:39,794
glad to be here.
109
00:03:39,796 --> 00:03:42,430
Moonshiner josh, I'm from
columbus, north carolina.
110
00:03:42,432 --> 00:03:44,332
Alright y'all,
it's already rolling.
111
00:03:44,334 --> 00:03:46,668
I was always fascinated
with moonshine.
112
00:03:46,670 --> 00:03:48,169
I really think
it's just something
113
00:03:48,171 --> 00:03:49,204
that came natural to me.
114
00:03:49,206 --> 00:03:50,605
It's just in my dna.
115
00:03:50,607 --> 00:03:53,008
My uncle amos, amos owens
116
00:03:53,010 --> 00:03:54,976
was one of the most
famous moonshiners
117
00:03:54,978 --> 00:03:56,344
in north carolina history.
118
00:03:56,346 --> 00:03:58,580
And that does add
a lot of extra pressure
119
00:03:58,582 --> 00:04:01,049
because you got
the family name to uphold.
120
00:04:01,051 --> 00:04:02,484
Tell me what you working with?
121
00:04:02,486 --> 00:04:04,419
I brought some creek water
from back home,
122
00:04:04,421 --> 00:04:06,588
-I know makes good moonshine.
-[tim] yeah.
123
00:04:06,590 --> 00:04:08,790
I am here to make
a family recipe.
124
00:04:08,792 --> 00:04:10,225
I brought some white corn,
125
00:04:10,227 --> 00:04:11,960
yellow corn, corn malt.
126
00:04:11,962 --> 00:04:13,662
Do you have a name for it?
127
00:04:13,664 --> 00:04:16,965
No, it's just a family recipe
that I was taught to do
128
00:04:16,967 --> 00:04:19,067
and I just added
a grain or two to it.
129
00:04:19,069 --> 00:04:21,136
I went and dug up
a bunch of sassafras,
130
00:04:21,138 --> 00:04:23,038
which is where
root beer came from.
131
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,974
So, it's just
a root beer moonshine.
132
00:04:25,976 --> 00:04:27,375
-Good job, all right.
-Thank you brother.
133
00:04:27,377 --> 00:04:28,576
I'm here to win.
134
00:04:28,578 --> 00:04:30,345
-All right, daniel.
-What's going on?
135
00:04:30,347 --> 00:04:31,813
What you working with
over here?
136
00:04:31,815 --> 00:04:33,481
You got a whole
lotta buckets here.
137
00:04:33,483 --> 00:04:36,184
Yellow corn, malted barley
and malted rye.
138
00:04:36,186 --> 00:04:38,253
And I put just
a little cold water
139
00:04:38,255 --> 00:04:40,088
in here on top if it at first.
140
00:04:40,090 --> 00:04:42,457
Because I found,
if you pour hot water in it,
141
00:04:42,459 --> 00:04:44,159
it'll just ball up
like a softball.
142
00:04:44,161 --> 00:04:45,527
It'll keep it from doing that.
143
00:04:45,529 --> 00:04:47,896
It's just a tennessee recipe
144
00:04:47,898 --> 00:04:50,165
that's been passed down.
145
00:04:50,167 --> 00:04:53,034
I am daniel maner
from sevierville, tennessee.
146
00:04:53,303 --> 00:04:54,202
Yeah.
147
00:04:54,504 --> 00:04:55,603
As a kid,
148
00:04:55,605 --> 00:04:57,372
I always had
a real big interest
149
00:04:57,374 --> 00:04:59,240
in moonshine and distilling.
150
00:04:59,242 --> 00:05:01,109
It means a hell of lot to me
151
00:05:01,111 --> 00:05:02,811
to be able to make
the same mash
152
00:05:02,813 --> 00:05:05,480
that a friend of mine's
great grandpa made.
153
00:05:05,482 --> 00:05:08,516
His name was greer sutton
and it was his dad's recipe.
154
00:05:08,518 --> 00:05:11,419
I'd love to keep this art
and heritage alive
155
00:05:11,421 --> 00:05:13,588
because that's what it is,
it's art and heritage.
156
00:05:13,890 --> 00:05:15,323
Oh lordy.
157
00:05:15,325 --> 00:05:18,793
Today I'm making
traditional four grain liquor.
158
00:05:18,795 --> 00:05:20,995
Old timers, back when
they used to make this,
159
00:05:20,997 --> 00:05:22,530
they would use cattle bran.
160
00:05:22,532 --> 00:05:26,034
Instead of using cattle bran,
I always use raisin bran.
161
00:05:26,036 --> 00:05:28,636
The raisins actually
work as a yeast nutrient
162
00:05:28,638 --> 00:05:30,572
which produces more alcohol.
163
00:05:30,574 --> 00:05:31,840
I hope that it turns out
164
00:05:31,842 --> 00:05:33,641
as good as it did
for me in the past.
165
00:05:33,643 --> 00:05:35,343
All right,
good luck with that.
166
00:05:35,345 --> 00:05:37,045
[daniel] it's a honor
to get to compete
167
00:05:37,047 --> 00:05:38,246
with two competitors
168
00:05:38,248 --> 00:05:40,482
that are pretty
stiff competition.
169
00:05:40,484 --> 00:05:42,183
But now, you know mike,
170
00:05:42,185 --> 00:05:43,551
michael's no dummy.
171
00:05:43,553 --> 00:05:45,053
He knows what he's doing.
172
00:05:45,055 --> 00:05:47,555
I worked side beside
with him for a long time.
173
00:05:47,557 --> 00:05:48,990
We used to be partners.
174
00:05:48,992 --> 00:05:50,658
It seems to me like, you just
175
00:05:50,660 --> 00:05:52,594
dumped me off
and take somebody else.
176
00:05:52,596 --> 00:05:54,195
[mike] I had to bring
somebody in here
177
00:05:54,197 --> 00:05:55,630
to help me finish this.
178
00:05:55,632 --> 00:05:57,565
I mean, I've got money
to make too.
179
00:05:57,567 --> 00:05:59,567
[daniel] we no longer
work together.
180
00:05:59,569 --> 00:06:01,636
I feel that he done me wrong.
181
00:06:01,638 --> 00:06:03,338
And I don't hate him,
182
00:06:03,340 --> 00:06:04,973
I just don't trust him
no more.
183
00:06:04,975 --> 00:06:06,641
Partly it's a loyalty issue,
you know,
184
00:06:06,643 --> 00:06:07,942
that's been breached.
185
00:06:07,944 --> 00:06:09,244
You gotta be professional
186
00:06:09,246 --> 00:06:12,046
and I can get along
with the devil.
187
00:06:12,048 --> 00:06:13,648
-Hey mike.
-What'd you say tim?
188
00:06:13,650 --> 00:06:14,682
What you doing there?
189
00:06:14,684 --> 00:06:16,251
I've got my water
here heating up.
190
00:06:16,253 --> 00:06:17,852
I always put
a little cool water
191
00:06:17,854 --> 00:06:19,087
in my grain.
192
00:06:19,089 --> 00:06:20,588
-Stir it up, that way
it won't ball up in the...
-Okay.
193
00:06:20,590 --> 00:06:22,090
-...Hot water heat--
-you kinda like daniel.
194
00:06:22,092 --> 00:06:23,925
Yeah, pretty much,
we used to work together,
195
00:06:23,927 --> 00:06:26,227
-so we do a lot the same way.
-He put yeast in his.
196
00:06:26,229 --> 00:06:27,529
-Did you put yeast in it?
-I didn't do...
197
00:06:27,531 --> 00:06:29,798
I don't never do that
to mine to start off with.
198
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,434
-Do you have a name for it?
-Just call it maynor creek.
199
00:06:32,436 --> 00:06:34,369
That's strange 'cause
his last name is maner,
200
00:06:34,371 --> 00:06:36,638
but it's actually a place
called maynor creek.
201
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:37,839
Okay, good luck.
202
00:06:37,841 --> 00:06:39,407
Yes sir, thank you brother.
203
00:06:39,409 --> 00:06:40,542
[mike cockrell]
I'm moonshiner mike.
204
00:06:40,544 --> 00:06:42,143
I've been up here in tennessee
205
00:06:42,145 --> 00:06:43,812
for about 15 years now.
206
00:06:43,814 --> 00:06:46,414
And I'm from
south mississippi.
207
00:06:46,416 --> 00:06:49,017
I've been distilling
and tempering with moonshines
208
00:06:49,019 --> 00:06:50,819
since I was about 16 years old
209
00:06:50,821 --> 00:06:53,788
and I plan on doing it
till the day I'm dead.
210
00:06:53,790 --> 00:06:55,990
The way moonshine
started in my family
211
00:06:55,992 --> 00:06:58,293
was from my great
great grandmother.
212
00:06:58,295 --> 00:07:00,094
She actually taught
her husband
213
00:07:00,096 --> 00:07:01,529
how to make moonshine.
214
00:07:02,199 --> 00:07:03,531
And my grandmother is the one
215
00:07:03,533 --> 00:07:05,567
who passed down
the recipes to me.
216
00:07:05,569 --> 00:07:08,503
All right, that ought to be
enough to try to proof now.
217
00:07:08,505 --> 00:07:10,171
My great great grandmother
218
00:07:10,173 --> 00:07:12,340
was from maynor creek,
mississippi.
219
00:07:12,342 --> 00:07:14,642
So, the name
of my family recipe
220
00:07:14,644 --> 00:07:16,211
is gonna be maynor creek
221
00:07:16,213 --> 00:07:17,145
corn and rye.
222
00:07:17,147 --> 00:07:18,046
[grunts]
223
00:07:18,048 --> 00:07:20,482
this is recipe is over
100 years old.
224
00:07:20,484 --> 00:07:22,150
You always have
a weight on your shoulders
225
00:07:22,152 --> 00:07:24,419
when you're doing
what comes from home.
226
00:07:24,421 --> 00:07:25,987
You wanna make it right.
227
00:07:25,989 --> 00:07:27,856
Ah, damn, that's fine.
228
00:07:27,858 --> 00:07:31,092
We got a lot of pecan trees
in mississippi and louisiana,
229
00:07:31,094 --> 00:07:34,429
so I've put a spin
of pecan smoked rye.
230
00:07:34,431 --> 00:07:35,697
My grandfather,
my grandmother,
231
00:07:35,699 --> 00:07:37,131
they would want me to
232
00:07:37,133 --> 00:07:39,033
put in a little something new
233
00:07:39,035 --> 00:07:40,468
without screwing it up.
234
00:07:40,470 --> 00:07:43,104
Smoked rye smells so good.
235
00:07:43,106 --> 00:07:45,106
All of them are
gonna be great, I know that.
236
00:07:45,108 --> 00:07:47,642
I see a hard decision
in our future.
237
00:07:47,644 --> 00:07:50,845
But we shouldn't have
to taste no bad liquor.
238
00:07:50,847 --> 00:07:53,681
I might regret there,
so y'all boys watch out.
239
00:07:53,683 --> 00:07:54,816
[daniel] what you gonna do?
240
00:07:58,054 --> 00:08:00,021
[mike] what the hell!
241
00:08:00,023 --> 00:08:01,956
Josh you gonna
burn your hand there.
242
00:08:01,958 --> 00:08:03,124
Holy [bleep].
243
00:08:03,660 --> 00:08:04,459
[mike] you all right?
244
00:08:06,363 --> 00:08:08,596
I wasn't waiting
on that damn bucket.
245
00:08:08,598 --> 00:08:11,065
One minute boys,
y'all better stir fast.
246
00:08:11,067 --> 00:08:12,166
[josh] is that all?
247
00:08:12,168 --> 00:08:14,269
Yes sir, buddy boy.
248
00:08:17,307 --> 00:08:18,273
[digger] three,
249
00:08:18,542 --> 00:08:19,374
two,
250
00:08:19,743 --> 00:08:20,475
one.
251
00:08:20,577 --> 00:08:22,477
Step away boys,
y'all are done.
252
00:08:24,180 --> 00:08:25,580
Whoo!
253
00:08:25,582 --> 00:08:27,815
Chase on out,
and get you a little rest.
254
00:08:27,817 --> 00:08:29,417
We'll see you in five days.
255
00:08:29,419 --> 00:08:30,285
[josh] all righty.
256
00:08:30,287 --> 00:08:32,153
[mark] looking forward to it.
257
00:08:32,155 --> 00:08:35,256
[suspenseful music playing]
258
00:08:39,296 --> 00:08:40,662
[digger] family recipe.
259
00:08:40,664 --> 00:08:42,897
You made what
you've been taught to run.
260
00:08:42,899 --> 00:08:43,665
Now, it's time to see
261
00:08:43,667 --> 00:08:45,567
which one of you
gonna win this race.
262
00:08:45,569 --> 00:08:47,969
And josh, you'll notice,
263
00:08:47,971 --> 00:08:50,104
we put you a little something
extra over there boss.
264
00:08:50,106 --> 00:08:52,574
-[mark laughs]
-we didn't have
a for real wheelchair.
265
00:08:52,576 --> 00:08:54,809
-But that's a chair
with wheels on.
-Damn it, man.
266
00:08:54,811 --> 00:08:56,344
I did what I could do, man.
267
00:08:56,346 --> 00:08:57,645
Let's get this show
on the road.
268
00:08:57,647 --> 00:08:59,013
I want some liquor.
269
00:08:59,015 --> 00:09:00,949
Whoever's got the best jar
270
00:09:00,951 --> 00:09:02,550
gets to pick the still parts.
271
00:09:02,552 --> 00:09:04,652
[digger] you know
what you got boys, four hours.
272
00:09:04,654 --> 00:09:05,987
You're time starts...
273
00:09:06,189 --> 00:09:06,888
Now.
274
00:09:06,890 --> 00:09:08,323
Good luck boys.
275
00:09:08,325 --> 00:09:10,224
Hopefully your mash
worked off,
276
00:09:10,226 --> 00:09:11,326
ready to run.
277
00:09:11,328 --> 00:09:12,660
Yes sir, ready.
278
00:09:12,662 --> 00:09:14,028
[josh] mine's
still working off.
279
00:09:14,364 --> 00:09:15,263
[bleep]
280
00:09:15,265 --> 00:09:16,798
but it ain't done.
281
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,267
My heart sank when
I looked into my mash barrel
282
00:09:19,269 --> 00:09:20,468
'cause it ain't ready.
283
00:09:20,470 --> 00:09:22,203
My mash is still working off.
284
00:09:22,205 --> 00:09:23,571
I'm [bleep] already.
285
00:09:23,573 --> 00:09:25,173
[mike] don't overthink.
286
00:09:25,175 --> 00:09:26,240
[josh] I ain't gonna lie
287
00:09:26,242 --> 00:09:27,842
kind of started panicking
a little bit
288
00:09:27,844 --> 00:09:29,010
'cause I thought, well,
289
00:09:29,012 --> 00:09:30,144
it ain't like I can tell them
290
00:09:30,146 --> 00:09:31,679
I need to come back
in a day or two.
291
00:09:31,681 --> 00:09:33,081
It's competition time.
292
00:09:34,417 --> 00:09:35,984
I gotta run it right now.
293
00:09:35,986 --> 00:09:38,019
[tim] every one's worked off
but yours.
294
00:09:38,021 --> 00:09:39,954
Sometimes that gives
a different taste profile.
295
00:09:39,956 --> 00:09:41,189
[digger] he's doing
the right thing.
296
00:09:41,191 --> 00:09:43,925
He heats it up good and slow,
it'll kill that yeast.
297
00:09:43,927 --> 00:09:46,794
I think that mash
just needs to be gassed.
298
00:09:46,796 --> 00:09:49,263
I'm gonna try and strain
most of this stuff off the top
299
00:09:49,265 --> 00:09:50,164
before I get started,
300
00:09:50,166 --> 00:09:52,100
maybe not get so much
in that screen.
301
00:09:52,102 --> 00:09:53,701
That's a pretty good move.
302
00:09:53,703 --> 00:09:55,536
[mark] them raisins
is rehydrated
303
00:09:55,538 --> 00:09:57,271
back in the grapes,
ain't they daniel?
304
00:09:57,273 --> 00:09:58,439
[daniel] yes, sir.
305
00:09:58,441 --> 00:10:00,074
Tell me about your mash, mike.
306
00:10:00,076 --> 00:10:01,442
Uh, white corn
307
00:10:01,444 --> 00:10:03,177
and uh, smoked rye.
308
00:10:03,179 --> 00:10:04,779
Put a real good flavor to it.
309
00:10:04,781 --> 00:10:07,515
-Gotta be careful
with that rye.
-Got to.
310
00:10:07,517 --> 00:10:10,551
-That rye will make it mean
in a hurry, won't it?
-[mike] yup.
311
00:10:10,553 --> 00:10:12,353
[daniel] it won't if you know
what you doing.
312
00:10:13,390 --> 00:10:15,056
-[mike] that's right.
-[daniel laughs]
313
00:10:15,058 --> 00:10:15,957
yeah.
314
00:10:15,959 --> 00:10:17,525
And you either love it
or you hate.
315
00:10:17,527 --> 00:10:19,427
Well, I love it, I love rye.
316
00:10:19,429 --> 00:10:21,329
I got problems.
317
00:10:21,331 --> 00:10:22,630
[mike] what you got
going on there?
318
00:10:22,632 --> 00:10:24,265
I got a hole in my cap.
319
00:10:24,534 --> 00:10:25,833
[mike] holy hell.
320
00:10:25,835 --> 00:10:27,435
-[tim] can you see through it?
-[daniel] yeah.
321
00:10:27,437 --> 00:10:28,770
There's a hole inside this
322
00:10:29,305 --> 00:10:30,304
arm right here,
323
00:10:30,306 --> 00:10:31,406
right there.
324
00:10:31,408 --> 00:10:32,907
Yup, they sure are.
325
00:10:32,909 --> 00:10:34,075
That'll leak.
326
00:10:34,077 --> 00:10:35,943
We got anything to make
a little paste with?
327
00:10:35,945 --> 00:10:37,845
I don't know, if there's
any in there or not.
328
00:10:37,847 --> 00:10:39,547
[digger] well, unfortunately,
we get a contestant
329
00:10:39,549 --> 00:10:41,249
in here every once in a while
330
00:10:41,251 --> 00:10:42,550
and they wanna
treat their still
331
00:10:42,552 --> 00:10:44,152
like it's a rental car.
332
00:10:44,154 --> 00:10:46,054
What are you gonna
try to do daniel?
333
00:10:49,459 --> 00:10:50,625
I got problems.
334
00:10:50,627 --> 00:10:51,893
[mike] what you got
going on there?
335
00:10:51,895 --> 00:10:53,194
[daniel] I got a hole
in my cap.
336
00:10:53,196 --> 00:10:55,296
-[mike] holy hell.
-That'll leak.
337
00:10:55,298 --> 00:10:56,798
Make you some paste.
338
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:57,999
I got some oatmeal.
339
00:10:58,001 --> 00:10:59,200
-Yeah.
-[tim] there you go.
340
00:10:59,202 --> 00:11:00,702
I can make paste with oatmeal.
341
00:11:00,704 --> 00:11:01,969
Yeah, you're all right.
342
00:11:01,971 --> 00:11:03,371
Crank her up.
343
00:11:03,373 --> 00:11:05,273
Some you can't
control sometimes.
344
00:11:05,275 --> 00:11:06,841
Just gotta work
with what you got.
345
00:11:06,843 --> 00:11:07,675
[mark] that's right.
346
00:11:07,677 --> 00:11:09,143
You reckon that's a good bond?
347
00:11:09,145 --> 00:11:11,546
That'll be right yonder
when the damn cows
348
00:11:11,548 --> 00:11:12,447
come to the house.
349
00:11:12,449 --> 00:11:13,381
[daniel] yeah.
350
00:11:13,383 --> 00:11:14,782
[mark] problem solved, daniel.
351
00:11:15,652 --> 00:11:16,718
[josh] oh there it is.
352
00:11:17,821 --> 00:11:18,986
Final came out.
353
00:11:20,123 --> 00:11:21,489
Guys, two hours left.
354
00:11:21,491 --> 00:11:22,290
Hey,
355
00:11:22,625 --> 00:11:24,225
boys taste this.
356
00:11:24,227 --> 00:11:27,595
I mean, I'd say,
I think it's mighty fine.
357
00:11:27,597 --> 00:11:30,798
It's still up around
140 though josh,
it's burning the tongue.
358
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,333
I've been here several times
359
00:11:32,335 --> 00:11:33,401
and I've come this close
360
00:11:33,403 --> 00:11:35,403
to winning so many rounds.
361
00:11:35,405 --> 00:11:36,571
I want to win.
362
00:11:36,573 --> 00:11:39,173
-[josh] dump some more water
in it?
-[daniel] mmm-hmm.
363
00:11:39,175 --> 00:11:42,410
I'm not satisfied, I'd like
to filter it little bit.
364
00:11:42,412 --> 00:11:44,112
In my opinion I a put just
365
00:11:44,114 --> 00:11:47,148
just a little too much
malted barley in it.
366
00:11:47,150 --> 00:11:49,650
And that made it
just a little bit bitter
367
00:11:49,652 --> 00:11:51,219
on the tail end note.
368
00:11:51,221 --> 00:11:53,788
I might actually
cut two jars together.
369
00:11:54,390 --> 00:11:56,190
Forty five minutes boys.
370
00:11:56,192 --> 00:11:58,526
[mike] I'm having a damn
tug of war over here
371
00:11:58,528 --> 00:12:00,027
between six and seven
372
00:12:00,029 --> 00:12:01,763
on flavor and proof.
373
00:12:02,699 --> 00:12:03,798
Today I'm bringing
374
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,900
what's true to me
and my family.
375
00:12:05,902 --> 00:12:07,535
That is my jar right there.
376
00:12:07,537 --> 00:12:09,637
And when I set
that jar of liquor
377
00:12:09,639 --> 00:12:11,272
up on the table
for the judges,
378
00:12:11,274 --> 00:12:14,208
I'm 100% confident
in that jar.
379
00:12:14,210 --> 00:12:15,676
[digger] all right boys,
380
00:12:15,678 --> 00:12:16,944
you're out of time.
381
00:12:16,946 --> 00:12:19,180
Tighten 'em jars up, come on.
382
00:12:19,649 --> 00:12:21,215
Bring her in here.
383
00:12:21,217 --> 00:12:22,216
[daniel] don't get me wrong,
384
00:12:22,218 --> 00:12:23,184
some good liquor,
385
00:12:23,186 --> 00:12:25,253
but it is not the best
I've ever made.
386
00:12:25,255 --> 00:12:27,321
[mark] bring it on, big daddy.
387
00:12:27,323 --> 00:12:29,357
[josh] representing
the whole owens name
388
00:12:29,359 --> 00:12:31,292
and all the other sides
of my family
389
00:12:31,294 --> 00:12:32,627
that've made moonshine.
390
00:12:32,629 --> 00:12:36,030
I sure as hell don't wanna
make 'em roll over
in their grave.
391
00:12:36,032 --> 00:12:37,832
We better get you
when we get the decision.
392
00:12:38,601 --> 00:12:39,567
[mark] watch him go.
393
00:12:39,569 --> 00:12:41,002
He left out of this room
394
00:12:41,004 --> 00:12:42,670
just like he come
into the world,
395
00:12:42,672 --> 00:12:43,805
-backwards.
-Yeah.
396
00:12:43,807 --> 00:12:45,473
[all laughing]
397
00:12:45,475 --> 00:12:47,008
[tim] we got
three good jars here.
398
00:12:47,010 --> 00:12:48,910
You start wherever
you want to, tim.
399
00:12:48,912 --> 00:12:50,344
Mister josh.
400
00:12:50,346 --> 00:12:52,113
Well boys,
I was really worried
401
00:12:52,115 --> 00:12:53,815
when we started
this competition.
402
00:12:53,817 --> 00:12:55,149
We all make good liquor.
403
00:12:55,151 --> 00:12:57,618
But I felt like it turned out
pretty doggone good.
404
00:12:57,620 --> 00:12:59,353
I'd say it did, brother.
405
00:12:59,355 --> 00:13:02,089
It looks clear on the side
he ain't marked on.
406
00:13:02,091 --> 00:13:03,524
Little bit low proof.
407
00:13:03,526 --> 00:13:05,226
Maybe 90, maybe.
408
00:13:05,228 --> 00:13:07,461
Let's see what's in the jar.
409
00:13:07,463 --> 00:13:10,198
That's got a great nose on it,
that's corn liquor.
410
00:13:10,633 --> 00:13:11,499
Through and through.
411
00:13:11,501 --> 00:13:14,001
Yeah boy, all across
your nostrils.
412
00:13:14,003 --> 00:13:16,671
That's the way corn liquor
is supposed to smell.
413
00:13:16,673 --> 00:13:18,940
What's that other taste
I'm picking up on?
414
00:13:18,942 --> 00:13:20,408
It's got a little something
different there.
415
00:13:20,410 --> 00:13:22,376
Water makes a big difference.
416
00:13:22,378 --> 00:13:25,513
That's why I brought my water
from home on this go round.
417
00:13:25,515 --> 00:13:28,216
Maybe it's just we put
a lot more love in it.
418
00:13:28,218 --> 00:13:29,483
[tim] let's go
to the next one.
419
00:13:29,485 --> 00:13:30,985
I think it says mikey on it.
420
00:13:31,588 --> 00:13:33,387
And another low proof jar.
421
00:13:33,389 --> 00:13:34,622
Do y'all see what I'm seeing?
422
00:13:34,624 --> 00:13:36,057
He watered it down.
423
00:13:36,059 --> 00:13:37,925
There's a little something
funky about the smell.
424
00:13:37,927 --> 00:13:39,794
[digger] yeah, that smelt like
feet for a minute.
425
00:13:39,796 --> 00:13:42,330
Reckon he washed
daniel's feet in it.
426
00:13:43,266 --> 00:13:45,633
Yeah, there's something
hard funky in there.
427
00:13:45,635 --> 00:13:47,501
I'm getting little
fruity smell.
428
00:13:47,503 --> 00:13:49,937
My old family recipe,
it's simple.
429
00:13:49,939 --> 00:13:51,539
So, I figured out
I'd smoke some rye,
430
00:13:51,541 --> 00:13:52,940
add my own spin to it,
431
00:13:52,942 --> 00:13:54,475
yet the base
is still the same.
432
00:13:54,477 --> 00:13:56,043
Anything you can do
to make it better,
433
00:13:56,045 --> 00:13:56,944
make it better.
434
00:13:56,946 --> 00:13:59,447
The taste,
it's a descent flavor.
435
00:13:59,449 --> 00:14:01,682
But I think
it lacks something.
436
00:14:01,684 --> 00:14:03,484
Yeah, it's just watered down.
437
00:14:03,486 --> 00:14:04,652
Well.
438
00:14:04,654 --> 00:14:06,220
-This one's
daniel maner.
-Let's try big dan.
439
00:14:06,222 --> 00:14:07,555
Another clean jar.
440
00:14:07,557 --> 00:14:08,956
How did they get it so clean?
441
00:14:08,958 --> 00:14:09,891
Look at that thing.
442
00:14:09,893 --> 00:14:11,893
Little better on proof.
443
00:14:11,895 --> 00:14:14,161
-Not a lot though.
-[tim] he could do a little
bit more proof too.
444
00:14:14,163 --> 00:14:16,163
All of them's
got ninety or below.
445
00:14:16,633 --> 00:14:17,665
I kinda like that.
446
00:14:17,667 --> 00:14:19,467
-That's--
-it finishes good.
447
00:14:19,469 --> 00:14:21,535
Daniel's is like
grandpa's moonshine.
448
00:14:21,537 --> 00:14:24,005
I think he's got a good nose
and a good taste.
449
00:14:24,007 --> 00:14:26,040
I made the same style mash
450
00:14:26,042 --> 00:14:27,575
that's been made for years,
451
00:14:27,577 --> 00:14:29,577
except I put
my own spin on it.
452
00:14:29,579 --> 00:14:31,512
These family recipes,
you know,
453
00:14:31,514 --> 00:14:32,613
over the years,
454
00:14:32,615 --> 00:14:34,148
the more you do it
455
00:14:34,651 --> 00:14:36,450
the better you'll perfect it.
456
00:14:36,452 --> 00:14:38,386
[mark] we're all
in total agreement here.
457
00:14:38,388 --> 00:14:39,353
Pretty simple.
458
00:14:39,355 --> 00:14:40,788
-[mark] okay.
-One, two, three.
459
00:14:40,790 --> 00:14:42,356
I'm just glad to
be here with y'all,
460
00:14:42,358 --> 00:14:43,658
but I still wanna win.
461
00:14:43,660 --> 00:14:44,492
[mike laughs]
462
00:14:44,494 --> 00:14:45,693
we know you do.
463
00:14:45,695 --> 00:14:48,162
Well, may the best man win
is all I can say.
464
00:14:49,732 --> 00:14:51,365
[country music playing]
465
00:14:51,367 --> 00:14:54,035
[all laughing]
466
00:14:54,037 --> 00:14:56,304
-[mark] you got him,
ain't you?
-[daniel] yes sir.
467
00:14:56,306 --> 00:14:58,172
[digger] mercedes brake.
468
00:14:58,174 --> 00:15:00,274
-Hell yeah.
-Appreciate it.
469
00:15:00,276 --> 00:15:02,043
[digger] all right guys,
welcome back.
470
00:15:02,045 --> 00:15:03,377
And honestly,
it's the first time
471
00:15:03,379 --> 00:15:05,446
we've ever faced
anything like this.
472
00:15:05,448 --> 00:15:08,115
This is stuff that you can't
get on store shelf.
473
00:15:08,117 --> 00:15:11,152
This is family recipes, guys.
474
00:15:11,154 --> 00:15:13,087
And it means a lot to me
475
00:15:13,089 --> 00:15:15,990
just to be able for you
to shine with me.
476
00:15:15,992 --> 00:15:18,326
All that being said,
the mushy [bleep].
477
00:15:18,328 --> 00:15:19,894
[all laughing]
478
00:15:19,896 --> 00:15:22,930
mikey, your liquor,
it's got great taste.
479
00:15:22,932 --> 00:15:25,032
Had you brought
some alcohol to the party
480
00:15:25,034 --> 00:15:27,601
you'd probably be holding
the winning jar right there.
481
00:15:27,603 --> 00:15:29,003
Fell short,
482
00:15:29,005 --> 00:15:31,172
I'm gonna say probably
under 70 proof.
483
00:15:31,174 --> 00:15:33,007
Little bit low on the proof,
484
00:15:33,009 --> 00:15:34,542
but all in all
485
00:15:35,144 --> 00:15:36,344
fabulous flavor.
486
00:15:36,346 --> 00:15:37,144
Thank you.
487
00:15:37,547 --> 00:15:38,446
Daniel,
488
00:15:38,448 --> 00:15:39,680
what you got in your hands
489
00:15:39,682 --> 00:15:41,582
is what corn liquor's
supposed to be.
490
00:15:41,584 --> 00:15:43,818
It was good drink
front to back.
491
00:15:43,820 --> 00:15:46,153
You could get the other notes
of the other grains in there,
492
00:15:46,155 --> 00:15:49,023
but it didn't overpower,
it was corn forward.
493
00:15:49,025 --> 00:15:50,925
So, it's damn fine job
on your part.
494
00:15:50,927 --> 00:15:51,792
Appreciate it.
495
00:15:51,794 --> 00:15:53,627
It remind me
of my granddaddy's liquor,
496
00:15:53,629 --> 00:15:55,830
is what reminds,
it's like old-fashion.
497
00:15:55,832 --> 00:15:57,398
With a little simple still,
498
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:58,833
simple mash peel,
499
00:15:58,835 --> 00:15:59,800
tastes really good.
500
00:15:59,802 --> 00:16:01,035
-That makes me feel good.
-Real good.
501
00:16:01,037 --> 00:16:03,237
But you know,
if you had more proof
502
00:16:03,239 --> 00:16:04,805
I think you'd be
right on the money too.
503
00:16:06,075 --> 00:16:07,508
Josh,
504
00:16:07,510 --> 00:16:09,944
you had a damn fine
jar of liquor right there.
505
00:16:09,946 --> 00:16:10,945
Appreciate that.
506
00:16:10,947 --> 00:16:13,481
I like the layers, I mean,
it's real complex.
507
00:16:13,483 --> 00:16:15,449
You were little low
on your proof.
508
00:16:15,451 --> 00:16:17,651
Sometimes two drops of water
can make a difference
509
00:16:17,653 --> 00:16:20,554
in your successful tempering
and a failure in tempering.
510
00:16:22,358 --> 00:16:24,925
Boys, I'm proud as hell
of every one of you.
511
00:16:24,927 --> 00:16:27,028
Nobody's going home,
it's pecking order
512
00:16:27,030 --> 00:16:29,230
where everybody goes
to the still house.
513
00:16:29,232 --> 00:16:31,098
Mikey, you're going in last.
514
00:16:31,934 --> 00:16:34,969
Joshy, you're going in second.
515
00:16:34,971 --> 00:16:36,203
Daniel goes in first.
516
00:16:36,205 --> 00:16:38,005
I'd have never believed that.
517
00:16:38,007 --> 00:16:39,607
It really feels good to me.
518
00:16:39,609 --> 00:16:42,043
Hit a home run
and I'm glad I did.
519
00:16:42,045 --> 00:16:44,412
It's time to get your
tour guide for the day.
520
00:16:44,414 --> 00:16:45,579
Tickle.
521
00:16:47,016 --> 00:16:48,215
How's it going fellas?
522
00:16:48,217 --> 00:16:49,316
[all laughing]
523
00:16:49,318 --> 00:16:51,285
did you get the starter
fixed on the truck?
524
00:16:51,287 --> 00:16:53,020
No, josh is going to
have to push.
525
00:16:53,022 --> 00:16:53,788
Phew.
526
00:16:53,790 --> 00:16:55,256
All right, come on look.
527
00:16:55,258 --> 00:16:57,324
Here, you look like you could
stand a hand.
528
00:16:58,261 --> 00:16:59,160
All right.
529
00:16:59,162 --> 00:17:00,061
-Moonshiner out.
-Yeah.
530
00:17:00,063 --> 00:17:01,629
Guys, look yonder,
josh is sitting down and
531
00:17:01,631 --> 00:17:03,297
he's still taller than tickle.
532
00:17:03,299 --> 00:17:05,966
[tickle] uh, no, don't be
shoving at that door, josh.
533
00:17:05,968 --> 00:17:07,134
I tell you fellas,
534
00:17:07,136 --> 00:17:09,203
when that racoon jumped out
of that damn mash barrel,
535
00:17:09,205 --> 00:17:10,738
I was just about
done for the day.
536
00:17:10,740 --> 00:17:12,273
[all laughing]
537
00:17:12,675 --> 00:17:14,175
all right fellas,
538
00:17:14,177 --> 00:17:16,610
we are here to
pick your still parts.
539
00:17:16,612 --> 00:17:19,280
When I say parts,
I mean a whole still.
540
00:17:19,282 --> 00:17:21,082
Daniel, you're up first.
541
00:17:21,084 --> 00:17:22,316
You got three minutes.
542
00:17:22,718 --> 00:17:23,784
Starting...
543
00:17:23,786 --> 00:17:24,585
Now.
544
00:17:24,587 --> 00:17:25,619
[daniel laughs]
545
00:17:25,621 --> 00:17:27,354
I'm just gonna
grab a thump keg
546
00:17:27,356 --> 00:17:29,356
it will clean it up
a little better
547
00:17:29,358 --> 00:17:31,625
and it'll actually
enhance that flavor.
548
00:17:31,627 --> 00:17:34,028
All right, you can't
make liquor with just that.
549
00:17:34,030 --> 00:17:36,964
But look, your time
is steadily running out.
550
00:17:36,966 --> 00:17:38,899
Don't you wear
the hinges out on my door.
551
00:17:38,901 --> 00:17:41,602
I wish you'd leave it open,
I'm scared of the dark.
552
00:17:41,604 --> 00:17:44,105
[tickle] god almighty!
That man, daniel.
553
00:17:44,107 --> 00:17:46,240
-[daniel] what?
-You're really starting
to worry me.
554
00:17:46,242 --> 00:17:48,409
He ain't leaving
nothing for y'all now.
555
00:17:48,811 --> 00:17:50,010
All right daniel.
556
00:17:50,012 --> 00:17:51,345
[daniel]
I've got to have that.
557
00:17:51,347 --> 00:17:52,580
Josh,
558
00:17:52,582 --> 00:17:54,582
we understand you're at
a little bit of disadvantage.
559
00:17:54,584 --> 00:17:55,416
It's all right.
560
00:17:55,418 --> 00:17:56,717
When you're done,
561
00:17:56,719 --> 00:17:59,019
-I'll haul it all up for you,
all right?
-All right then.
562
00:17:59,021 --> 00:18:00,287
You got three minutes
563
00:18:00,289 --> 00:18:01,989
starting now.
564
00:18:01,991 --> 00:18:03,290
[josh] I'm just gonna
remain calm.
565
00:18:03,292 --> 00:18:04,391
I'm just gonna go in there,
566
00:18:04,393 --> 00:18:05,826
I'm gonna grab
the pieces of the still
567
00:18:05,828 --> 00:18:07,294
that I know I need.
568
00:18:07,296 --> 00:18:09,029
Try not to forget
all the little pieces
569
00:18:09,031 --> 00:18:09,730
that connect it.
570
00:18:10,633 --> 00:18:12,032
Are you finding what you need?
571
00:18:13,202 --> 00:18:14,435
Yeah, I do.
572
00:18:14,437 --> 00:18:16,270
There sure is a whole
lot of noise in there
573
00:18:16,272 --> 00:18:17,271
and he just hollered.
574
00:18:17,273 --> 00:18:19,173
I don't know
if he's down or what.
575
00:18:20,409 --> 00:18:21,842
[josh] I'm missing
something here.
576
00:18:22,578 --> 00:18:23,811
All those little caps
577
00:18:23,813 --> 00:18:26,180
and gaskets
and clamps and all that.
578
00:18:26,182 --> 00:18:28,115
There was just
nothing to pick from.
579
00:18:28,117 --> 00:18:29,116
It was terrible.
580
00:18:29,118 --> 00:18:30,518
Somebody's a [bleep]!
581
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,086
[tickle] oh well,
you didn't think
582
00:18:32,088 --> 00:18:34,021
it was going to be so easy,
did you?
583
00:18:34,023 --> 00:18:36,123
They don't nothing
[bleep] fit!
584
00:18:36,125 --> 00:18:38,826
It's down to seconds now,
josh.
585
00:18:38,828 --> 00:18:39,693
Shut up.
586
00:18:39,695 --> 00:18:41,662
Don't laugh mike, you're next.
587
00:18:41,664 --> 00:18:44,198
[bleep] there ain't gonna be
nothing there for me to get.
588
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,132
[tickle] three,
589
00:18:45,401 --> 00:18:46,433
two,
590
00:18:46,435 --> 00:18:47,268
one.
591
00:18:47,270 --> 00:18:49,436
Pencil's down,
time's over josh.
592
00:18:49,438 --> 00:18:52,039
The competition's a little bit
fiercer against us,
593
00:18:52,041 --> 00:18:53,274
even though we're all buddies.
594
00:18:53,276 --> 00:18:55,042
[tickle] let's grab
your stuff.
595
00:18:55,044 --> 00:18:55,943
[josh] let me tell you,
596
00:18:55,945 --> 00:18:57,478
there ain't a single
one of us here
597
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,046
that don't wanna win.
598
00:18:59,048 --> 00:19:01,115
It is your turn mike.
599
00:19:01,117 --> 00:19:02,583
You got three minutes
600
00:19:02,585 --> 00:19:03,450
starting
601
00:19:03,586 --> 00:19:04,618
now.
602
00:19:04,620 --> 00:19:06,453
[mike] my strategy going
into the still house
603
00:19:06,455 --> 00:19:08,556
is to pick
what the hell's leftover.
[chuckles]
604
00:19:08,558 --> 00:19:10,124
I mean,
that's all I've got left.
605
00:19:10,126 --> 00:19:10,958
[tickle] all right,
606
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,360
he has got a thumper.
607
00:19:13,362 --> 00:19:14,929
All right, I can't find
nothing else.
608
00:19:14,931 --> 00:19:16,964
Is there something here
under here?
609
00:19:16,966 --> 00:19:19,300
-[bleep]
-all right, your time's
running out now.
610
00:19:19,302 --> 00:19:21,335
I ain't even got a damn ie.
611
00:19:21,337 --> 00:19:22,903
[tickle] all right, well,
if you ain't got it,
612
00:19:22,905 --> 00:19:24,038
you don't see it in there
613
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:25,806
maybe one of your partners
has got it.
614
00:19:25,808 --> 00:19:28,209
You got one minute left, mike.
615
00:19:28,211 --> 00:19:30,411
-[bleep]
-[tickle] one minute.
616
00:19:30,413 --> 00:19:32,346
Oh god, what am I
gonna do now?
617
00:19:33,516 --> 00:19:34,815
I ain't even got a damn ie.
618
00:19:34,817 --> 00:19:36,317
[tickle] all right, well,
if you ain't got it,
619
00:19:36,319 --> 00:19:37,451
you don't see it in there
620
00:19:37,453 --> 00:19:39,320
maybe one of your partners
has got it.
621
00:19:39,322 --> 00:19:41,622
You got one minute left, mike.
622
00:19:41,624 --> 00:19:43,924
-[bleep]
-[tickle] one minute.
623
00:19:43,926 --> 00:19:46,227
Oh god, what am I
gonna do now?
624
00:19:46,229 --> 00:19:49,396
Maybe I'm left behind
as far as still parts or that,
625
00:19:49,398 --> 00:19:50,531
but at the end of the day
626
00:19:50,533 --> 00:19:53,467
when we come back in the room,
I'll make it happen.
627
00:19:53,469 --> 00:19:55,469
[tickle] you got
fifteen seconds, mike.
628
00:19:56,639 --> 00:19:58,839
Are you done?
Is that all you need?
629
00:19:58,841 --> 00:20:01,208
I got a little something
to work with, not much.
630
00:20:01,210 --> 00:20:03,310
Well, we got what we've got.
631
00:20:03,312 --> 00:20:05,412
Josh, why don't you
lead the way on out.
632
00:20:13,456 --> 00:20:14,955
[tim] back in action.
633
00:20:14,957 --> 00:20:16,156
Welcome back boys.
634
00:20:16,158 --> 00:20:17,958
Hopefully got what you needed.
635
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,060
You got one hour to
get that still together,
636
00:20:20,062 --> 00:20:22,129
then you go right into
your four hour run
637
00:20:22,131 --> 00:20:23,330
flavoring your liquor up.
638
00:20:23,332 --> 00:20:25,065
One hour on your build starts
639
00:20:25,301 --> 00:20:26,166
now.
640
00:20:26,235 --> 00:20:28,535
-Good luck boys.
-[mark] get busy guys.
641
00:20:28,537 --> 00:20:29,970
[mike] boy, that's just...
642
00:20:29,972 --> 00:20:31,105
Frickin' beautiful.
643
00:20:35,311 --> 00:20:37,111
Hey mike, we may need to swap.
644
00:20:37,813 --> 00:20:39,413
We may need to swap arms.
645
00:20:39,415 --> 00:20:40,414
Mmm-mmm.
646
00:20:41,050 --> 00:20:42,549
[digger] mmmm.
647
00:20:42,551 --> 00:20:44,485
-[daniel] huh!
-What's the problem?
648
00:20:44,487 --> 00:20:46,887
My cap and arms
are different heights brother.
649
00:20:46,889 --> 00:20:48,522
Surely, they're all the same.
650
00:20:48,524 --> 00:20:50,724
-[tim] it'll work,
just squeeze it down.
-Just pull that base down
651
00:20:50,726 --> 00:20:52,126
and lock her on there.
652
00:20:52,128 --> 00:20:53,427
Show him, josh.
653
00:20:53,429 --> 00:20:54,628
[tim] do it, josh.
654
00:20:54,630 --> 00:20:56,196
That's all you had to do.
655
00:20:56,198 --> 00:20:58,732
Dan, you said josh was
the dumb one in the lot.
656
00:20:58,734 --> 00:21:00,267
[chuckles] well, look.
657
00:21:00,269 --> 00:21:01,468
[all laughing]
658
00:21:01,470 --> 00:21:03,137
everybody always
bust my [bleep].
659
00:21:03,139 --> 00:21:04,238
[daniel laughing]
660
00:21:05,574 --> 00:21:08,509
[tim] mike, he's gonna modify
what he's already got.
661
00:21:10,112 --> 00:21:11,378
[mark] that'll work.
662
00:21:11,380 --> 00:21:13,047
Put your weight on that,
663
00:21:13,049 --> 00:21:14,948
you're in business now.
664
00:21:14,950 --> 00:21:16,383
[josh] I need a little gasket.
665
00:21:16,385 --> 00:21:18,519
What's wrong with you,
you're cheating.
666
00:21:18,521 --> 00:21:19,920
You see that, he's cheating.
667
00:21:19,922 --> 00:21:22,323
Looky there, a little
bit of persuasion.
668
00:21:22,325 --> 00:21:23,490
That didn't look
like cheating,
669
00:21:23,492 --> 00:21:24,658
just like
he borrowed something.
670
00:21:24,660 --> 00:21:25,459
[daniel laughing]
671
00:21:25,461 --> 00:21:26,560
he just got what he needed.
672
00:21:27,963 --> 00:21:28,996
I needed that.
673
00:21:28,998 --> 00:21:31,265
[all laughing]
674
00:21:31,667 --> 00:21:33,267
I knew it was over there.
675
00:21:33,269 --> 00:21:35,669
I figured it had to be you.
676
00:21:35,671 --> 00:21:37,471
[mark] oh mike got her built,
I think.
677
00:21:37,473 --> 00:21:39,606
Hell, I guess,
I got mine together.
678
00:21:39,608 --> 00:21:40,708
[digger] all right boys,
679
00:21:40,710 --> 00:21:43,510
you look like everybody's
finished up, ready to run.
680
00:21:43,512 --> 00:21:45,045
Time to run this liquor.
681
00:21:45,047 --> 00:21:47,114
Your legacy passed
down to you all.
682
00:21:47,116 --> 00:21:49,049
Now, here's what's at stake.
683
00:21:49,051 --> 00:21:51,685
The winner of this flat
for your next challenge,
684
00:21:51,687 --> 00:21:53,354
gets 30 extra minutes
685
00:21:53,356 --> 00:21:54,555
to do their magic.
686
00:21:54,990 --> 00:21:56,290
Remember
687
00:21:56,292 --> 00:21:58,258
this little fella is at stake.
688
00:21:58,260 --> 00:22:00,027
[mike] all three of us
would love to win,
689
00:22:00,029 --> 00:22:02,062
but one man's gotta
walk away with the trophy.
690
00:22:03,065 --> 00:22:04,631
Four hours starting
691
00:22:04,633 --> 00:22:05,432
now.
692
00:22:05,434 --> 00:22:06,467
Good luck guys.
693
00:22:08,270 --> 00:22:09,570
Dang god!
694
00:22:09,572 --> 00:22:11,038
Yeah, we tightened
them up for you.
695
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:12,206
Somebody did.
696
00:22:17,146 --> 00:22:18,212
[daniel] look there.
697
00:22:18,214 --> 00:22:19,646
Old backwards trick here,
698
00:22:19,648 --> 00:22:22,049
burn the hair off your arm
when you light your burner.
699
00:22:22,051 --> 00:22:23,817
I thought I smelled hair.
700
00:22:23,819 --> 00:22:26,086
Anybody wanna borrow
some damn muscadines?
701
00:22:26,088 --> 00:22:27,421
I've got plenty.
[chuckles]
702
00:22:27,423 --> 00:22:29,256
I'm third right now,
703
00:22:29,258 --> 00:22:31,325
so, what I'm gonna do
to move forward
704
00:22:31,327 --> 00:22:33,127
is put some flavor in there
705
00:22:33,129 --> 00:22:35,162
from my home,
from mississippi.
706
00:22:35,164 --> 00:22:38,031
And of course, everybody
in the south knows muscadines.
707
00:22:38,033 --> 00:22:39,099
[mark] mikey,
708
00:22:39,101 --> 00:22:42,102
I noticed you
put them muscadines,
709
00:22:42,104 --> 00:22:43,337
muscadine juice
710
00:22:43,339 --> 00:22:45,205
and a jar of liquor
in your thumper.
711
00:22:45,207 --> 00:22:46,273
I did.
712
00:22:46,275 --> 00:22:48,909
[mark] is that part
of the original family recipe?
713
00:22:48,911 --> 00:22:49,943
[mike] the muscadines,
714
00:22:49,945 --> 00:22:51,412
they're plentiful
down in mississippi.
715
00:22:51,414 --> 00:22:53,814
We always use them
for a lot of stuff,
716
00:22:53,816 --> 00:22:56,350
-but particularly not liquor,
so to speak.
-Right.
717
00:22:56,352 --> 00:22:58,786
Just the white corn basically
was all they had.
718
00:22:58,788 --> 00:22:59,686
Put my spin on it
719
00:22:59,688 --> 00:23:01,655
with the muscadines
and the smoked rye.
720
00:23:01,657 --> 00:23:03,424
You're taking it
to another level.
721
00:23:03,426 --> 00:23:05,058
I like the direction
you're going in.
722
00:23:05,060 --> 00:23:06,093
Appreciate it.
723
00:23:06,095 --> 00:23:07,227
I'm gonna experiment
724
00:23:07,229 --> 00:23:08,262
and try something
little different.
725
00:23:08,264 --> 00:23:09,463
What you gonna do?
726
00:23:09,465 --> 00:23:11,665
I'mma put a few
of these raisins in that
thumper keg.
727
00:23:11,667 --> 00:23:13,367
-[mark] daniel?
-Yes sir.
728
00:23:13,369 --> 00:23:14,601
[mark] I'm pretty sure
729
00:23:14,603 --> 00:23:16,904
on your family recipe
730
00:23:16,906 --> 00:23:20,207
damn raisin bran
is your spin on it.
731
00:23:20,209 --> 00:23:22,276
The raisin bran is my spin,
732
00:23:22,278 --> 00:23:23,710
you know, raisin feeds yeast
733
00:23:23,712 --> 00:23:25,179
and makes it work
a little better.
734
00:23:25,181 --> 00:23:26,013
-All right.
-But,
735
00:23:26,015 --> 00:23:27,247
on the downside of it,
736
00:23:27,249 --> 00:23:29,650
raisin sucks up
some of your alcohol.
737
00:23:29,652 --> 00:23:32,052
That I tasted sucked up
a lot of it.
738
00:23:32,855 --> 00:23:34,154
[daniel] for the second run,
739
00:23:34,156 --> 00:23:36,957
I knew that I had to have
a good strong high proof
740
00:23:36,959 --> 00:23:38,425
that tasted really good,
741
00:23:38,427 --> 00:23:41,862
so I loaded my distillates
from the first run
742
00:23:41,864 --> 00:23:43,530
to make it have a higher proof
743
00:23:43,532 --> 00:23:46,567
to mix it with the flavor,
to make it stand out.
744
00:23:46,569 --> 00:23:47,568
I like it.
745
00:23:47,570 --> 00:23:48,936
Josh,
746
00:23:48,938 --> 00:23:51,205
-what is that sassafras root?
-[digger] sassafras root.
747
00:23:51,207 --> 00:23:52,439
[josh] yeah.
748
00:23:52,441 --> 00:23:54,808
I remember my grandma, grandpa
talking about it growing up,
749
00:23:54,810 --> 00:23:56,477
they used to dig it up
all the time and...
750
00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:58,378
Hold on.
751
00:23:59,348 --> 00:24:00,647
God dog.
752
00:24:00,649 --> 00:24:02,549
You ain't gonna believe this.
753
00:24:02,551 --> 00:24:04,218
I go to wiggling on it,
I'm like,
754
00:24:04,220 --> 00:24:06,186
"damn I smell gasoline."
755
00:24:06,188 --> 00:24:07,821
it's on my damn sassafras,
756
00:24:07,823 --> 00:24:09,690
it's totally
coated in gasoline.
757
00:24:10,192 --> 00:24:11,925
God dammit.
758
00:24:11,927 --> 00:24:14,328
The gasoline in the biker
truck got to it.
759
00:24:14,330 --> 00:24:15,762
My roots is ruined.
760
00:24:17,967 --> 00:24:19,600
Josh's roots is tainted.
761
00:24:19,602 --> 00:24:21,401
The gas jugs
spilled all over it,
762
00:24:21,403 --> 00:24:22,669
I didn't have no idea.
763
00:24:22,671 --> 00:24:23,937
-Damn.
-[tim] damn.
764
00:24:23,939 --> 00:24:25,138
That's the only roots you got.
765
00:24:25,140 --> 00:24:26,607
Hell yeah, it took me
to freaking
766
00:24:26,609 --> 00:24:28,609
11 o'clock at night
to dig them up.
767
00:24:30,446 --> 00:24:31,912
[mark] it's just an accident.
768
00:24:31,914 --> 00:24:33,347
You know how to overcome this,
769
00:24:33,349 --> 00:24:36,450
-that's what moonshiners do.
-This ain't the first accident
you've had.
770
00:24:36,452 --> 00:24:39,119
Even a blind squirrel can get
a nut every once a while,
771
00:24:39,121 --> 00:24:40,420
what the hell's wrong with me?
772
00:24:40,422 --> 00:24:42,456
Get off that pity party
bull [bleep]
773
00:24:42,458 --> 00:24:44,124
and get to thinking
about what you got
774
00:24:44,126 --> 00:24:45,325
and start with your run.
775
00:24:47,196 --> 00:24:48,662
[daniel] it just ain't right.
776
00:24:48,664 --> 00:24:51,298
If I win, I wanna win
on a level playing field
777
00:24:51,300 --> 00:24:53,300
and I feel you feel
the same way.
778
00:24:53,302 --> 00:24:55,302
[josh] mike, the woods
is right out here.
779
00:24:55,304 --> 00:24:57,237
Let's got get that boy
some sassafras.
780
00:24:57,806 --> 00:24:58,872
[mike] yeah boy.
781
00:24:58,874 --> 00:24:59,540
Phew.
782
00:24:59,542 --> 00:25:00,841
[mike] I'm salvaging an idiot.
783
00:25:00,843 --> 00:25:02,042
-That's all you need.
-All right y'all.
784
00:25:02,044 --> 00:25:03,277
That's what I wanted
to hear from you.
785
00:25:03,279 --> 00:25:05,078
-[josh] man,
I appreciate y'all.
-[mark laughing]
786
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,514
daniel and mike being
awesome good sports
787
00:25:07,516 --> 00:25:09,016
and the brothers
that they are,
788
00:25:09,018 --> 00:25:10,651
they're like, "come on josh,
we'll go out back
789
00:25:10,653 --> 00:25:11,919
and we'll just dig
you some more."
790
00:25:11,921 --> 00:25:13,487
-[daniel] is that here?
-[mike] there ain't no way.
791
00:25:13,489 --> 00:25:15,489
-Yeah, there you go.
-Oh yeah, there's plenty of it
right here, boy.
792
00:25:15,491 --> 00:25:16,557
[josh] you guys are awesome.
793
00:25:16,559 --> 00:25:17,991
[daniel] we're gonna
get you sassafras.
794
00:25:17,993 --> 00:25:19,326
-[josh] oh yeah!
-[daniel] there you go.
795
00:25:19,328 --> 00:25:21,428
-Here's another one josh.
-Golly.
796
00:25:21,430 --> 00:25:23,797
Heck, sassafras grows
all over there dadgum...
797
00:25:23,799 --> 00:25:25,132
-[josh] sure does.
-...Forest floor.
798
00:25:25,134 --> 00:25:26,500
You just gotta know
what you're looking for.
799
00:25:26,502 --> 00:25:27,534
If you've ever
been in the woods much,
800
00:25:27,536 --> 00:25:29,403
-you'll know one.
-That's right.
801
00:25:29,405 --> 00:25:32,039
-[josh] did y'all know, this
is where root beer came from?
-[mike] yup.
802
00:25:32,041 --> 00:25:33,974
We probably got enough,
tell you the truth.
803
00:25:33,976 --> 00:25:37,544
All three of us wanna play
on a level playing field.
804
00:25:37,546 --> 00:25:39,646
-Thank you so much, y'all.
-Yeah bud.
805
00:25:39,648 --> 00:25:41,515
If we got to help
the other one
806
00:25:41,517 --> 00:25:42,482
through the competition,
807
00:25:42,484 --> 00:25:44,251
that's exactly
what we're gonna do.
808
00:25:44,253 --> 00:25:46,119
[digger] well,
I'm gonna tell you boys,
809
00:25:46,121 --> 00:25:49,056
I'm speaking for all three
of the old heads up here,
810
00:25:49,058 --> 00:25:50,924
that's the way you're supposed
to do business,
811
00:25:50,926 --> 00:25:52,059
help each other.
812
00:25:52,061 --> 00:25:54,561
That's a big deal in our eyes.
813
00:25:54,563 --> 00:25:56,830
[josh] I got to thinking,
boiling that down
814
00:25:56,832 --> 00:25:58,498
making a sassafras tea
815
00:25:58,500 --> 00:26:00,567
and put it in my thump keg.
816
00:26:00,569 --> 00:26:02,202
Kinda up against the fire,
817
00:26:02,204 --> 00:26:03,236
but I'm going for it
818
00:26:03,238 --> 00:26:05,238
'cause it's family,
it's heritage.
819
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,940
It'll either work out
or it won't.
820
00:26:06,942 --> 00:26:09,476
Oh yeah, it won't be long.
821
00:26:09,478 --> 00:26:11,511
All right boys,
you got 30 minutes.
822
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,281
Got alcohol.
823
00:26:14,283 --> 00:26:16,249
Oh hell, I'm running,
didn't even know it.
824
00:26:18,787 --> 00:26:20,187
Oh boy!
825
00:26:20,189 --> 00:26:21,455
That's high level.
826
00:26:21,457 --> 00:26:22,656
Whoo-ee!
827
00:26:22,658 --> 00:26:25,025
[mark] I don't what we got
to worry about flavor wise
828
00:26:25,027 --> 00:26:26,226
with mike on this round
829
00:26:26,228 --> 00:26:27,928
but it ain't gonna be proof.
830
00:26:27,930 --> 00:26:30,330
There's very little
water in that nice liquor.
831
00:26:30,332 --> 00:26:31,264
[mike] mmm-hmm.
832
00:26:31,266 --> 00:26:34,401
Daniel over here,
he's got the proof, mmm.
833
00:26:34,403 --> 00:26:36,103
Well, that's good,
that's good.
834
00:26:36,472 --> 00:26:37,571
[digger] all right boys,
835
00:26:37,573 --> 00:26:39,339
bring in some jars boys,
turn them in.
836
00:26:39,341 --> 00:26:40,540
We're eager to get tasting.
837
00:26:41,377 --> 00:26:42,809
Mike's coming up.
838
00:26:42,811 --> 00:26:44,978
[mike] I'm actually
very, very blessed
839
00:26:44,980 --> 00:26:48,081
to be able to turn in
a jar of history.
840
00:26:48,083 --> 00:26:49,716
Head on out,
you know the deal.
841
00:26:49,718 --> 00:26:52,085
[mike] that makes each
and every one of proud.
842
00:26:52,087 --> 00:26:53,954
[digger] daniel's up next.
843
00:26:53,956 --> 00:26:55,956
[daniel] I handed in
the lowest proof jar
844
00:26:55,958 --> 00:26:57,524
that had real good flavor.
845
00:26:57,526 --> 00:27:00,193
Yup, that jar is full,
we would know nothing's in it.
846
00:27:00,195 --> 00:27:01,328
[daniel] the flavor
of the raisins
847
00:27:01,330 --> 00:27:03,463
actually carried
through real well.
848
00:27:03,465 --> 00:27:05,666
You might wanna wait,
you can push old josh.
849
00:27:06,135 --> 00:27:07,234
That it, josh?
850
00:27:07,236 --> 00:27:09,102
Yes sir, it has the winner
written on it.
851
00:27:09,104 --> 00:27:10,437
-[mark] it looks good.
-Winner, winner.
852
00:27:10,439 --> 00:27:13,173
[josh] to be here doing
a family recipe,
853
00:27:13,175 --> 00:27:15,676
I just wanna knock her
damn socks off with it.
854
00:27:15,678 --> 00:27:17,477
Let's go with
the closest one to me.
855
00:27:17,479 --> 00:27:18,612
Josh,
856
00:27:18,614 --> 00:27:20,280
clear but it's hard
to see through it,
857
00:27:20,282 --> 00:27:22,416
'cause he got pictures
drawn on every side.
858
00:27:22,418 --> 00:27:23,950
[digger] but he nailed it
on the proof.
859
00:27:23,952 --> 00:27:25,252
[tim] yeah, it's on the money.
860
00:27:25,254 --> 00:27:26,953
I think those two
are for y'all,
861
00:27:26,955 --> 00:27:29,690
since y'all like that
sassafras root.
862
00:27:29,692 --> 00:27:32,492
-I want some corn liquor.
-Mmm-hmm.
863
00:27:32,494 --> 00:27:34,094
And there it is on the nose.
864
00:27:35,364 --> 00:27:37,497
Mmm, I'm telling you,
865
00:27:37,499 --> 00:27:40,133
that's so good,
you about gotta lay down
to drink.
866
00:27:40,135 --> 00:27:42,135
-That is good.
-[digger] he nailed it.
867
00:27:42,137 --> 00:27:43,236
I'm gonna be honest,
868
00:27:43,238 --> 00:27:46,039
that may raise the bar
a little bit.
869
00:27:46,041 --> 00:27:47,908
Gonna be hard
to get any better than that.
870
00:27:47,910 --> 00:27:49,543
Yeah, them boys got to
bring their a game
871
00:27:49,545 --> 00:27:51,111
if they gonna pass this here.
872
00:27:52,748 --> 00:27:53,413
Josh.
873
00:27:53,415 --> 00:27:54,181
Mmm.
874
00:27:54,183 --> 00:27:56,049
-That is good.
-He nailed it.
875
00:27:56,051 --> 00:27:58,952
That may raise the bar
a little bit.
876
00:27:58,954 --> 00:28:00,554
Yeah, them boys got to
bring their a game
877
00:28:00,556 --> 00:28:02,055
if they gonna pass this here.
878
00:28:02,057 --> 00:28:03,457
I kinda had just gave up
879
00:28:03,459 --> 00:28:05,292
on the whole thing
of sassafras.
880
00:28:05,294 --> 00:28:07,394
Y'all were willing to go
dig my sassafras.
881
00:28:07,396 --> 00:28:09,563
I said, "to hell with it,
I'm gonna do the sassafras,
882
00:28:09,565 --> 00:28:11,131
that's what I'm here to do."
883
00:28:11,133 --> 00:28:13,734
as far as traditional
homemade liquor,
884
00:28:13,736 --> 00:28:15,769
josh has really hit the mark.
885
00:28:16,305 --> 00:28:17,370
All right,
886
00:28:17,372 --> 00:28:18,271
next jar.
887
00:28:18,273 --> 00:28:20,807
-Daniel maner.
-Daniel maner.
888
00:28:20,809 --> 00:28:22,309
-[mark] high proof.
-Boat load of it.
889
00:28:23,412 --> 00:28:25,378
-[digger] yeah,
he's still a little high.
-Worked well.
890
00:28:25,380 --> 00:28:27,514
What do you say,
there's 110 temp?
891
00:28:27,516 --> 00:28:28,381
[tim] more than that.
892
00:28:28,817 --> 00:28:30,650
Maybe 125.
893
00:28:30,652 --> 00:28:32,786
[sighs] let's see
what daniel's working with.
894
00:28:35,357 --> 00:28:37,057
That's a corn liquor nose.
895
00:28:37,059 --> 00:28:38,091
Damn.
896
00:28:38,093 --> 00:28:40,527
Ooh, she got some
alcohol in there.
897
00:28:40,529 --> 00:28:42,963
I just lost all the hair
in my nose.
898
00:28:42,965 --> 00:28:45,398
I guarantee you one thing,
you know, they said,
899
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,901
"oh, that's just
a little light on proof
900
00:28:47,903 --> 00:28:49,035
to suit me."
901
00:28:49,037 --> 00:28:50,871
well, they've got three jars
in there today
902
00:28:50,873 --> 00:28:51,838
that ain't light on proof.
903
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:53,039
-It's gone a little too deep
-that's right.
904
00:28:53,041 --> 00:28:55,208
It'll make you sweat
on a cold day.
905
00:28:55,210 --> 00:28:56,676
It's good liquor,
just too hot.
906
00:28:57,379 --> 00:28:59,379
All right, mikey man.
907
00:29:00,182 --> 00:29:01,381
Pretty jar.
908
00:29:01,383 --> 00:29:03,283
-Not bad, not bad.
-Good as can be.
909
00:29:04,453 --> 00:29:05,719
That ain't as high as
daniel's, huh?
910
00:29:05,721 --> 00:29:07,053
-I don't think.
-[tim] no, no.
911
00:29:07,055 --> 00:29:08,822
-Yeah, I'd give him 110.
-[mark] I'm waiting.
912
00:29:08,824 --> 00:29:10,457
[tim] yeah.
913
00:29:10,459 --> 00:29:13,059
-Mmm, that's good smell too.
-[digger] that's got
a nice nose.
914
00:29:13,061 --> 00:29:15,796
-Nice smell.
-Got that muscadine
coming in there.
915
00:29:15,798 --> 00:29:18,198
-That smells good.
-[tim] hmm.
916
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:19,533
I want them to
be able to taste
917
00:29:19,535 --> 00:29:22,536
that muscadine of my past,
of my history
918
00:29:22,538 --> 00:29:23,670
and family, so...
919
00:29:23,672 --> 00:29:25,438
There's not much
muscadine flavor in there,
920
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:26,840
but there's a hint
921
00:29:26,842 --> 00:29:27,908
of it in there that makes it
922
00:29:27,910 --> 00:29:29,442
totally different
say than you two guys
923
00:29:29,444 --> 00:29:31,611
and that's what the whole
competition is about.
924
00:29:31,613 --> 00:29:34,614
To be 110,
that's a pretty good taste.
925
00:29:34,616 --> 00:29:36,483
Mikey's flavor's spot on
926
00:29:36,485 --> 00:29:39,419
for what a muscadine liquor's
supposed to be.
927
00:29:39,421 --> 00:29:40,620
Yeah, I like it.
928
00:29:40,622 --> 00:29:41,822
So, let's get this straight.
929
00:29:42,291 --> 00:29:43,456
The winner
930
00:29:43,458 --> 00:29:45,125
is gonna get one hour
931
00:29:45,127 --> 00:29:47,027
to flavor their jar.
932
00:29:47,029 --> 00:29:49,095
And then,
the second place tie,
933
00:29:49,097 --> 00:29:51,264
-they're gonna get 30 minutes.
-Yup.
934
00:29:51,266 --> 00:29:53,033
All right, we're all
on same page.
935
00:29:53,035 --> 00:29:53,834
-All good.
-I'll go fetch 'em.
936
00:29:54,236 --> 00:29:55,068
Okay.
937
00:29:55,304 --> 00:29:56,269
We're back.
938
00:29:57,506 --> 00:29:59,206
-Thank you, buddy.
-All right.
939
00:30:00,709 --> 00:30:02,676
Well, I gotta hand it to you,
940
00:30:02,678 --> 00:30:04,344
y'all made it pretty tough.
941
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:05,745
Josh.
942
00:30:06,582 --> 00:30:07,647
Corn liquor.
943
00:30:07,649 --> 00:30:09,816
You had corn in there
944
00:30:09,818 --> 00:30:11,451
hell west and crooked.
945
00:30:11,453 --> 00:30:12,552
[mark] josh,
946
00:30:12,554 --> 00:30:14,421
-I loved your liquor.
-Thank you.
947
00:30:14,423 --> 00:30:16,223
I can't wait to see
948
00:30:16,225 --> 00:30:18,992
what you can do
with this flavoring business.
949
00:30:18,994 --> 00:30:21,194
Mikey, good tasting liquor.
950
00:30:21,997 --> 00:30:23,196
It's a little high,
951
00:30:23,198 --> 00:30:24,965
your proof is up there.
952
00:30:24,967 --> 00:30:27,634
Muscadine came
through there pretty good.
953
00:30:27,636 --> 00:30:30,503
Flavors is top-shelf.
954
00:30:30,505 --> 00:30:32,105
Good, good drink.
955
00:30:32,107 --> 00:30:33,206
Appreciate it.
956
00:30:33,208 --> 00:30:35,141
Daniel, yours is a,
957
00:30:35,143 --> 00:30:36,843
-a little bit higher.
-Yeah.
958
00:30:36,845 --> 00:30:38,211
And with that high alcohol,
959
00:30:38,213 --> 00:30:40,313
that kinda,
shocks your palette.
960
00:30:40,315 --> 00:30:42,816
-You don't really taste
the profile we're looking for.
-Mmm-hmm.
961
00:30:42,818 --> 00:30:44,684
But good clear
all the way through.
962
00:30:44,686 --> 00:30:46,086
All in all,
963
00:30:46,088 --> 00:30:47,454
great, great drink of liquor.
964
00:30:48,090 --> 00:30:48,989
We have
965
00:30:49,491 --> 00:30:51,057
a winner and
966
00:30:51,059 --> 00:30:52,292
two seconds.
967
00:30:52,294 --> 00:30:54,494
[suspenseful music playing]
968
00:30:55,697 --> 00:30:56,897
mikey,
969
00:30:56,899 --> 00:30:58,598
you got the number one jar.
970
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,401
-Appreciate it.
-That gives you an extra
30 minutes to work with.
971
00:31:01,403 --> 00:31:02,369
On the next run,
972
00:31:02,371 --> 00:31:04,504
we've got
a guest judge coming.
973
00:31:04,506 --> 00:31:07,207
Y'all chase on out of here
and get your game faces on.
974
00:31:07,209 --> 00:31:09,709
-Well, let's go get that judge
out the box, you want to?
-All right.
975
00:31:10,379 --> 00:31:12,979
[suspenseful music playing]
976
00:31:13,315 --> 00:31:14,714
here we come.
977
00:31:14,716 --> 00:31:16,950
-There you go, brother.
-Thank you, pal.
978
00:31:16,952 --> 00:31:18,418
Welcome back, boys.
979
00:31:18,420 --> 00:31:19,619
Final challenge.
980
00:31:19,621 --> 00:31:21,187
Time to bring your a game.
981
00:31:21,189 --> 00:31:22,355
And I'm gonna hand you off
982
00:31:22,357 --> 00:31:24,791
to the lovely and talented
danielle parton.
983
00:31:24,793 --> 00:31:26,092
[danielle parton]
nice to meet you guys,
984
00:31:26,094 --> 00:31:27,861
-I'm excited to be here.
-Nice to meet you.
985
00:31:27,863 --> 00:31:29,596
My day job,
I'm an airline pilot
986
00:31:29,598 --> 00:31:31,331
for one of the largest
airlines in the world.
987
00:31:31,333 --> 00:31:32,632
I'm still
an international guard,
988
00:31:32,634 --> 00:31:34,601
I'm a lieutenant colonel
here in tennessee.
989
00:31:34,603 --> 00:31:38,138
And I also have a moonshine
of my own called shine girl.
990
00:31:38,140 --> 00:31:40,340
I truly believe that
if women will drink it,
991
00:31:40,342 --> 00:31:41,808
men will buy it.
992
00:31:41,810 --> 00:31:43,543
But I don't expect
this to be weak
993
00:31:43,545 --> 00:31:44,878
and I have,
I know a little bit about
994
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,347
family recipes of my own
in the parton family
995
00:31:47,349 --> 00:31:49,816
and the nolan family here
in sevier county is known for
996
00:31:49,818 --> 00:31:51,117
making a little whiskey
997
00:31:51,119 --> 00:31:52,452
and shutting down
a little whiskey
998
00:31:52,454 --> 00:31:54,287
with sheriff nolan, so...
999
00:31:54,289 --> 00:31:55,522
I'm looking forward to this.
1000
00:31:55,524 --> 00:31:56,823
[josh] that's danielle parton,
1001
00:31:56,825 --> 00:31:59,793
dolly parton's niece, that's
pretty impressive in itself.
1002
00:31:59,795 --> 00:32:01,695
And she's pretty rad chick.
1003
00:32:02,531 --> 00:32:04,164
Well, you know what this is.
1004
00:32:04,166 --> 00:32:06,066
It's the last
of the mohicans.
1005
00:32:06,068 --> 00:32:07,801
It's where the rubber
meets the road
1006
00:32:07,803 --> 00:32:09,602
one of you is gonna
go home today
1007
00:32:09,604 --> 00:32:12,305
with this pretty little
bootlegger truck over here.
1008
00:32:12,307 --> 00:32:14,941
[tim] every generation,
they put a spin on things.
1009
00:32:14,943 --> 00:32:17,277
I know, I put a little spin
on my family recipe
1010
00:32:17,279 --> 00:32:19,379
and improved it
just a little bit.
1011
00:32:19,381 --> 00:32:21,047
That's what we're looking
for you to do.
1012
00:32:21,550 --> 00:32:22,682
[digger] you got one hour.
1013
00:32:22,684 --> 00:32:24,250
You boys got 30 minutes.
1014
00:32:24,252 --> 00:32:25,485
Your time starts
1015
00:32:25,954 --> 00:32:26,619
now.
1016
00:32:26,621 --> 00:32:27,654
Good luck boys.
1017
00:32:30,225 --> 00:32:31,491
[mike whistles]
1018
00:32:31,493 --> 00:32:32,559
damn, almighty.
1019
00:32:32,561 --> 00:32:33,493
[mike] is it hot?
1020
00:32:33,495 --> 00:32:34,728
Make a good cocktail.
1021
00:32:36,531 --> 00:32:38,398
Daniel, what you got there?
1022
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,434
[daniel] I'm actually mixing
the salted caramel flavor in
1023
00:32:41,436 --> 00:32:43,169
and I'm having to
add a little bit water
1024
00:32:43,171 --> 00:32:44,904
to get it cut down to par.
1025
00:32:44,906 --> 00:32:46,573
Now, how much
did you tame this down?
1026
00:32:46,575 --> 00:32:48,408
I don't wanna have
start waxing my chest
1027
00:32:48,410 --> 00:32:49,242
when we're done.
1028
00:32:49,244 --> 00:32:50,910
I'll drop it down to about 90.
1029
00:32:50,912 --> 00:32:52,278
Okay, I can do 90.
1030
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,614
When you've got a real,
real high proof alcohol,
1031
00:32:54,616 --> 00:32:57,817
it takes a lot of flavor
to make it pop.
1032
00:32:57,819 --> 00:33:00,020
I know exactly
how I have to put in
1033
00:33:00,022 --> 00:33:02,022
to where somebody's
palette will enjoy it.
1034
00:33:02,924 --> 00:33:03,890
[danielle] now, mike,
you tell me
1035
00:33:03,892 --> 00:33:05,125
what you doing down there?
1036
00:33:05,127 --> 00:33:07,327
[mike] you know, everybody's
heard of apple pie.
1037
00:33:07,329 --> 00:33:09,696
So, I decided to do
a muscadine pie.
1038
00:33:09,698 --> 00:33:11,064
Which is
1039
00:33:11,066 --> 00:33:13,066
something I've never done,
1040
00:33:13,068 --> 00:33:15,301
using my muscadine cider
1041
00:33:15,303 --> 00:33:16,403
and juice and stuff
1042
00:33:16,405 --> 00:33:18,271
and uh, little brown sugar,
1043
00:33:18,273 --> 00:33:21,007
-cinnamon and just
a touch of vanilla.
-Mmm-hmm.
1044
00:33:21,009 --> 00:33:22,976
I have never had a muscadine.
1045
00:33:22,978 --> 00:33:23,810
Really?
1046
00:33:23,812 --> 00:33:25,278
You don't know
what you're missing.
1047
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:26,613
Let's try one.
1048
00:33:26,615 --> 00:33:28,248
Do I need to spit 'em
towards josh?
1049
00:33:28,250 --> 00:33:29,816
You can spit
the seeds toward josh
1050
00:33:29,818 --> 00:33:31,818
and eat skin and the inside.
1051
00:33:32,654 --> 00:33:34,487
It looks like a grape.
1052
00:33:34,489 --> 00:33:37,290
-I love 'em too danielle.
-It smells like a grape.
1053
00:33:39,461 --> 00:33:41,094
They don't taste bad.
1054
00:33:41,096 --> 00:33:42,295
They're pretty good.
1055
00:33:42,297 --> 00:33:44,397
[danielle] yeah,
they're a little tart,
but I like tart.
1056
00:33:44,399 --> 00:33:46,032
It's kinda like me,
I'm a little more tart
1057
00:33:46,034 --> 00:33:47,434
than I am sweet.
1058
00:33:47,436 --> 00:33:48,802
-You're a mountain girl
through and through.
-[danielle] yes.
1059
00:33:48,804 --> 00:33:49,536
Oh yeah.
1060
00:33:49,538 --> 00:33:50,570
-Yeah.
-Yeah, we're tougher than
1061
00:33:50,572 --> 00:33:52,138
a night in jail
in these mountains.
1062
00:33:52,140 --> 00:33:53,139
[mark laughs]
1063
00:33:53,141 --> 00:33:53,973
[mark] do you smell that?
1064
00:33:53,975 --> 00:33:55,842
I mean the room's
full of root beer.
1065
00:33:55,844 --> 00:33:57,677
-[digger] root beer,
smell like damn root beer.
-Yes sure it is.
1066
00:33:57,679 --> 00:33:59,279
I hate damn root beer.
1067
00:34:00,515 --> 00:34:02,248
All right boys,
y'all got 15 minutes.
1068
00:34:02,250 --> 00:34:04,117
He's got 45.
1069
00:34:04,119 --> 00:34:05,652
[josh] I'm really
apprehensive about,
1070
00:34:05,654 --> 00:34:06,519
whether I'm gonna be able
1071
00:34:06,521 --> 00:34:08,388
to pull this whole
root beer thing off.
1072
00:34:08,390 --> 00:34:10,390
I actually brought
some root berry candies,
1073
00:34:10,392 --> 00:34:12,325
you know the one's
like little barrels.
1074
00:34:12,327 --> 00:34:15,195
And I'm gonna blend 'em all up
dump 'em in there.
1075
00:34:17,365 --> 00:34:19,032
[laughing]
1076
00:34:27,409 --> 00:34:29,309
[mike] ain't you
getting there, son?
1077
00:34:29,311 --> 00:34:30,977
You ever used
a blender before?
1078
00:34:30,979 --> 00:34:32,278
[josh] yes, ma'am.
1079
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:33,379
That's a technique
1080
00:34:33,381 --> 00:34:34,581
I ain't never
seen in a kitchen,
1081
00:34:34,583 --> 00:34:36,282
I'll give you that much.
1082
00:34:36,284 --> 00:34:39,152
-You seen people that
don't color inside the lines?
-[danielle] mmm-hmm.
1083
00:34:39,154 --> 00:34:40,653
Josh don't even
color on the page.
1084
00:34:40,655 --> 00:34:41,988
[mark laughing]
1085
00:34:41,990 --> 00:34:43,623
god dog,
that's a plain in the ass.
1086
00:34:44,159 --> 00:34:46,392
Forty five seconds, men.
1087
00:34:46,394 --> 00:34:48,595
[daniel] I was prepared
when I walked in the room
1088
00:34:48,597 --> 00:34:51,231
to deliver the best tasting
salted caramel
1089
00:34:51,233 --> 00:34:52,999
that I could.
1090
00:34:53,001 --> 00:34:55,034
-[digger] here comes the
opposition right out the gate.
-[danielle] all right.
1091
00:34:55,036 --> 00:34:56,169
And I'm proud of that.
1092
00:34:56,338 --> 00:34:57,971
Hot dog.
1093
00:34:57,973 --> 00:35:00,373
I come from a long line
of moonshiners.
1094
00:35:00,375 --> 00:35:01,941
Now, let's get the hell
out of here.
1095
00:35:01,943 --> 00:35:03,076
You ready?
1096
00:35:03,111 --> 00:35:05,311
[josh] so, I'm not just here
representing myself,
1097
00:35:05,313 --> 00:35:08,148
I'm here representing
my whole entire family.
1098
00:35:08,150 --> 00:35:09,549
I tell you guys,
1099
00:35:09,551 --> 00:35:12,485
I think we're gonna have
three really, really good
tasty jars here
1100
00:35:12,487 --> 00:35:14,087
to try to pick a winner from.
1101
00:35:14,089 --> 00:35:15,788
You doing all right
over there, mikey?
1102
00:35:15,790 --> 00:35:18,091
[suspenseful music playing]
1103
00:35:19,127 --> 00:35:22,061
that didn't look like
a look of satisfaction to me.
1104
00:35:22,063 --> 00:35:24,998
Well, there I am again
having that trouble.
1105
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,299
-The siding.
-[mike] the proof.
1106
00:35:26,735 --> 00:35:27,467
The proof.
1107
00:35:27,469 --> 00:35:28,635
Whose tasting this?
1108
00:35:29,404 --> 00:35:30,737
-All of us.
-All of us.
1109
00:35:31,206 --> 00:35:32,438
[mike laughing]
1110
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:33,940
I don't know what to do.
1111
00:35:33,942 --> 00:35:36,176
-[digger] no pressure
over there.
-No pressure.
1112
00:35:36,178 --> 00:35:37,544
[mike] when it comes
down to taste
1113
00:35:37,546 --> 00:35:40,313
or proof for firmness,
1114
00:35:40,315 --> 00:35:41,481
there's a fine line
1115
00:35:41,483 --> 00:35:43,283
that makes a guy win or lose
1116
00:35:43,285 --> 00:35:44,717
within a competition
with alcohol.
1117
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,487
You got a minute and a half
to make your decision.
1118
00:35:47,489 --> 00:35:49,422
[sighs] I understand.
1119
00:35:49,424 --> 00:35:51,424
But we got that mile to walk,
1120
00:35:51,426 --> 00:35:53,560
we got that mile
of judgement to face.
1121
00:35:53,562 --> 00:35:56,196
And only one man
can walk away the winner.
1122
00:35:56,198 --> 00:35:57,664
Forty five seconds.
1123
00:36:01,369 --> 00:36:02,902
-Danielle. You grew up here.
-[danielle] yes sir.
1124
00:36:02,904 --> 00:36:05,104
What's some of the history
of your family recipes?
1125
00:36:05,106 --> 00:36:06,706
Well, I like to make
a moonshine
1126
00:36:06,708 --> 00:36:08,474
made with straight honey.
1127
00:36:08,476 --> 00:36:09,676
-Straight honey?
-Just raw honey.
1128
00:36:09,678 --> 00:36:11,311
It gives a smoother finish.
1129
00:36:11,313 --> 00:36:13,213
I don't like that
hot vapor in my nose
1130
00:36:13,215 --> 00:36:14,214
when I'm drinking.
1131
00:36:14,216 --> 00:36:15,815
And as I'm developing
my own brand,
1132
00:36:15,817 --> 00:36:17,517
I like to think about
some of the things
1133
00:36:17,519 --> 00:36:19,485
in the market research
that people don't
1134
00:36:19,487 --> 00:36:20,753
pay attention to.
1135
00:36:20,755 --> 00:36:23,523
Women are something like
60-70% of the decision makers
1136
00:36:23,525 --> 00:36:25,525
to buy distilled spirits.
1137
00:36:25,527 --> 00:36:27,060
So, one of the things
I'm trying to do
1138
00:36:27,062 --> 00:36:28,595
is to give
a female spin to it,
1139
00:36:28,597 --> 00:36:29,996
since I am one.
1140
00:36:29,998 --> 00:36:31,998
I'd make a awfully
weird looking...
1141
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,199
-Man.
-We never noticed.
1142
00:36:33,635 --> 00:36:34,500
[mark laughing]
1143
00:36:34,603 --> 00:36:36,336
well, I didn't get
the dress code memo.
1144
00:36:36,338 --> 00:36:38,671
[all laughing]
1145
00:36:41,243 --> 00:36:43,042
-forty five seconds.
-I'm gonna try one more time,
let me see.
1146
00:36:43,044 --> 00:36:44,210
[digger] don't get your
ass in gear,
1147
00:36:44,212 --> 00:36:46,179
you might not have to worry
about a decision.
1148
00:36:46,715 --> 00:36:48,147
Swing at it son.
1149
00:36:48,149 --> 00:36:49,115
Do what you gotta do.
1150
00:36:49,117 --> 00:36:51,050
-You only got 30 seconds.
-I'm making my decision.
1151
00:36:51,052 --> 00:36:52,518
I'm going with number two.
1152
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,120
So, there's jar number two.
1153
00:36:54,122 --> 00:36:55,788
That there muscadine, ah.
1154
00:36:56,358 --> 00:36:57,557
I brought my a game.
1155
00:36:57,559 --> 00:36:59,125
I always try to
1156
00:36:59,127 --> 00:37:00,660
bring out something
out of the box
1157
00:37:00,662 --> 00:37:03,196
that I've never done,
especially in a competition.
1158
00:37:03,198 --> 00:37:04,397
And some people will tell me,
1159
00:37:04,399 --> 00:37:05,898
"well, that's not the time
to do that."
1160
00:37:05,900 --> 00:37:06,866
but with me,
1161
00:37:06,868 --> 00:37:08,635
I like to try to
do things different
1162
00:37:08,637 --> 00:37:11,271
and just wow the people
just trying to taste it.
1163
00:37:11,806 --> 00:37:13,273
I say we get with it.
1164
00:37:13,275 --> 00:37:14,307
All right, let's do
in the order
1165
00:37:14,309 --> 00:37:15,508
they dropped 'em off.
1166
00:37:15,510 --> 00:37:17,210
-Daniel, josh, mike.
-[tim] all right.
1167
00:37:17,212 --> 00:37:18,344
[digger] there's daniel's.
1168
00:37:18,346 --> 00:37:19,846
You wanna take
a good look at it.
1169
00:37:19,848 --> 00:37:21,814
[digger] the only clear jar
on the table.
1170
00:37:22,817 --> 00:37:24,284
And you know
it's got a lot stuff in it,
1171
00:37:24,286 --> 00:37:26,085
so you can't
tell the proofs on it.
1172
00:37:26,087 --> 00:37:28,621
Think what I've got
a pretty strong jar.
1173
00:37:28,623 --> 00:37:30,089
Women like it
1174
00:37:30,091 --> 00:37:31,090
and men like it
1175
00:37:31,092 --> 00:37:32,191
all the same.
1176
00:37:33,328 --> 00:37:35,161
That smells good.
1177
00:37:35,163 --> 00:37:37,530
-Got a good nose.
-It does smell like caramel.
1178
00:37:37,532 --> 00:37:39,899
-Pretty darn good.
-Taste like caramel.
1179
00:37:39,901 --> 00:37:41,501
He didn't take
all the liquor out.
1180
00:37:41,503 --> 00:37:43,069
That went down pretty easy.
1181
00:37:43,071 --> 00:37:44,003
That was nice.
1182
00:37:44,005 --> 00:37:46,105
Still a good 90 proof,
ain't it?
1183
00:37:46,107 --> 00:37:47,540
It's a good 90 proof.
1184
00:37:47,542 --> 00:37:48,975
Now, that taste's really good.
1185
00:37:48,977 --> 00:37:50,109
It's like candy.
1186
00:37:50,111 --> 00:37:50,943
I could drink that
1187
00:37:50,945 --> 00:37:52,545
with my pancakes
in the morning.
1188
00:37:52,547 --> 00:37:54,547
You'd eat breakfast
three times a day.
1189
00:37:55,150 --> 00:37:57,250
This competition is about
1190
00:37:57,252 --> 00:37:58,217
family heritage.
1191
00:37:58,219 --> 00:37:59,952
Bringing something
to the table
1192
00:37:59,954 --> 00:38:02,588
that you just can't go
get nowhere else.
1193
00:38:02,590 --> 00:38:04,057
[digger] let's move on
to another one.
1194
00:38:04,059 --> 00:38:05,158
[tim] josh.
1195
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,160
Sassafras man,
a root beer man.
1196
00:38:07,162 --> 00:38:08,328
He was heating that up,
1197
00:38:08,330 --> 00:38:10,063
you could really smell
the whole room
1198
00:38:10,065 --> 00:38:11,497
filled up with root beer.
1199
00:38:11,499 --> 00:38:12,699
[josh] I was really battling
1200
00:38:12,701 --> 00:38:15,635
with this sassafras
being like a medicinal drink,
1201
00:38:15,637 --> 00:38:17,270
mixing it with the liquor,
1202
00:38:17,272 --> 00:38:18,838
which liquor's medicinal
1203
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,506
to get a flavor
with something really sweet
1204
00:38:20,508 --> 00:38:22,608
that makes it
enjoyable to drink.
1205
00:38:22,610 --> 00:38:25,945
But there's a fine line
between just sweet enough
1206
00:38:25,947 --> 00:38:28,214
and too damn sweet.
1207
00:38:28,216 --> 00:38:30,917
-I gotta say, it's root beer.
-Oh, it's root beer all right.
1208
00:38:30,919 --> 00:38:32,285
You don't like
root beer, right?
1209
00:38:32,287 --> 00:38:33,319
I don't like root beer,
1210
00:38:33,321 --> 00:38:34,821
but that's not real heavy
on root beer
1211
00:38:34,823 --> 00:38:36,422
I'm gonna tell you,
it ain't real root beer.
1212
00:38:36,424 --> 00:38:38,658
It smells more root beer
than it tastes.
1213
00:38:38,660 --> 00:38:41,527
I'm tasting a real medicine.
1214
00:38:41,529 --> 00:38:44,130
Spoon of that warm,
I would feel medicine.
1215
00:38:44,132 --> 00:38:45,598
-That would be a hot toddy.
-That would be medi--
1216
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:46,966
yeah, it sure would.
1217
00:38:46,968 --> 00:38:48,434
-I like it real good.
-I like it a lot.
1218
00:38:48,436 --> 00:38:49,802
I don't know if
I would drink it cold,
1219
00:38:49,804 --> 00:38:52,071
as a regular
sipping beverage, but
1220
00:38:52,073 --> 00:38:54,574
it has a home somewhere,
absolutely.
1221
00:38:54,576 --> 00:38:56,175
-We got one more.
-Muscadine.
1222
00:38:56,544 --> 00:38:58,010
Muscadine pie.
1223
00:38:58,012 --> 00:38:59,679
He got a cinnamon stick
floating in the bottle.
1224
00:38:59,681 --> 00:39:01,280
Yeah, who loves cinnamon here?
1225
00:39:02,283 --> 00:39:03,583
I like "cimanon".
1226
00:39:03,585 --> 00:39:05,451
Uh, how do you say it?
1227
00:39:05,453 --> 00:39:06,986
He can't hardly make a pie
1228
00:39:06,988 --> 00:39:08,654
without a little bit
of cinnamon in it.
1229
00:39:08,656 --> 00:39:09,622
[mike] tell you what boys,
1230
00:39:09,624 --> 00:39:11,724
I feel like I got
the winning jar this time.
1231
00:39:11,726 --> 00:39:13,593
Seen you break out
the muscadine juice.
1232
00:39:13,595 --> 00:39:14,660
Yup.
1233
00:39:14,662 --> 00:39:17,096
When I seen that, I was like,
"oh man, it's on."
1234
00:39:17,098 --> 00:39:19,298
you sugar that down,
it's gonna be good.
1235
00:39:20,101 --> 00:39:21,067
[tim] nice flavor.
1236
00:39:21,069 --> 00:39:22,335
Little bit of cinnamon.
1237
00:39:22,337 --> 00:39:23,936
Not a lot, it's
not overpowering.
1238
00:39:23,938 --> 00:39:25,938
It's not a whole
lot of cinnamon.
1239
00:39:25,940 --> 00:39:28,408
Don't seem like it has
a lot alcohol in it either,
does it?
1240
00:39:28,410 --> 00:39:30,376
Not a lot of muscadine either.
1241
00:39:30,378 --> 00:39:32,378
For me he's on the money.
1242
00:39:32,380 --> 00:39:35,047
We gotta come to a decision
here, boys and girl.
1243
00:39:35,049 --> 00:39:37,216
Well, listen, I'm a woman
who likes to get her way
1244
00:39:37,218 --> 00:39:38,484
and I'm not one to be swayed,
1245
00:39:38,486 --> 00:39:40,353
I'm gonna stick
with my original choice.
1246
00:39:40,355 --> 00:39:41,788
Well, I'm gonna go fetch 'em.
1247
00:39:41,790 --> 00:39:44,590
[suspenseful music playing]
1248
00:39:45,393 --> 00:39:46,659
[mark] all right, guys,
1249
00:39:46,661 --> 00:39:49,829
every one of yours jars
was outstanding.
1250
00:39:49,831 --> 00:39:50,997
[digger] boys,
I'm telling you,
1251
00:39:50,999 --> 00:39:54,033
toughest decision
we have faced to date.
1252
00:39:54,035 --> 00:39:55,802
I agree, it was very tough
1253
00:39:55,804 --> 00:39:58,471
and I'm so glad
I got to be a part of this
1254
00:39:58,473 --> 00:40:00,973
'cause I think
it's so important to
honor our families,
1255
00:40:00,975 --> 00:40:02,408
as well as
putting our own twist
1256
00:40:02,410 --> 00:40:03,943
and moving forward
in the world.
1257
00:40:03,945 --> 00:40:04,677
Mikey,
1258
00:40:04,679 --> 00:40:05,912
damn fine drink.
1259
00:40:05,914 --> 00:40:07,079
It still had that good
1260
00:40:07,081 --> 00:40:09,048
traditional liquor taste
we want.
1261
00:40:09,050 --> 00:40:10,516
Flavor is killer.
1262
00:40:11,619 --> 00:40:13,519
Daniel, yours the same way.
1263
00:40:13,521 --> 00:40:14,720
Taste really good.
1264
00:40:14,722 --> 00:40:17,056
[daniel] I've made this flavor
a hell of a lot
1265
00:40:17,058 --> 00:40:18,458
and I'm pretty confident
1266
00:40:18,460 --> 00:40:20,693
in the flavor
that I'm presenting.
1267
00:40:20,695 --> 00:40:22,261
You got every reason
in the world
1268
00:40:22,263 --> 00:40:23,429
to be confident
with it, brother,
1269
00:40:23,431 --> 00:40:24,464
I'm here to tell you.
1270
00:40:24,466 --> 00:40:26,065
For what you're representing
right there, son,
1271
00:40:26,067 --> 00:40:27,400
you knocked it out the park.
1272
00:40:27,402 --> 00:40:28,935
[josh] thank you buddy,
appreciate that.
1273
00:40:28,937 --> 00:40:30,937
I'll have to give
all my ancestors
1274
00:40:30,939 --> 00:40:34,040
credit for instilling this
so deep in my blood.
1275
00:40:34,042 --> 00:40:35,608
Wasn't a easy decision.
1276
00:40:36,344 --> 00:40:37,243
But
1277
00:40:37,979 --> 00:40:39,512
the drunk tomater...
1278
00:40:39,514 --> 00:40:42,014
[suspenseful music playing]
1279
00:40:43,418 --> 00:40:45,017
...Goes to daniel maner.
1280
00:40:45,420 --> 00:40:46,319
Thank you.
1281
00:40:46,354 --> 00:40:47,820
-[mike] you got it buddy.
-Appreciate it.
1282
00:40:47,822 --> 00:40:50,556
-But a damn fine job
on everybody's part.
-[josh] good job.
1283
00:40:51,292 --> 00:40:52,391
Tell you one thing,
1284
00:40:52,393 --> 00:40:54,293
this ain't
the last competition.
1285
00:40:54,295 --> 00:40:56,295
There's no losers
here tonight.
1286
00:40:56,297 --> 00:40:58,130
[daniel] you know,
it's real, real good feeling
1287
00:40:58,132 --> 00:40:59,832
to win master distiller
1288
00:40:59,834 --> 00:41:02,101
and win this little prize
and the bragging rights.
1289
00:41:02,103 --> 00:41:05,271
That little truck,
it'll remind me of all
the forefathers before me
1290
00:41:05,273 --> 00:41:07,340
that made moonshine
and hauled it.
1291
00:41:07,342 --> 00:41:09,075
It's all done,
let's go drink a little.
1292
00:41:09,077 --> 00:41:11,110
-All right.
-[danielle] let's do it.
1293
00:41:11,112 --> 00:41:12,979
[daniel] I'm gonna take
the little truck home.
1294
00:41:12,981 --> 00:41:15,248
It'll hold a lot of sentiment
of value to me.
1295
00:41:15,250 --> 00:41:17,450
You know, because I actually
won a competition
1296
00:41:17,452 --> 00:41:19,785
and won it with
a family recipe
1297
00:41:19,787 --> 00:41:21,420
that was passed down to me
1298
00:41:21,422 --> 00:41:23,122
through about
five generations.
1299
00:41:23,124 --> 00:41:24,657
-Spin around, I ain't
taking you backwards.
-Come on.
1300
00:41:24,659 --> 00:41:25,825
That'll look like
all sorts of silly.
1301
00:41:25,827 --> 00:41:27,994
[mark] here we go.
1302
00:41:27,996 --> 00:41:30,162
-[digger] but you pull
your wheels in, son.
-[mark laughing]
