“I’ve hauled a lot of peach brandy to New Jersey but I’ve never hauled any back” 🤣🤣🤣 must be some good shit.

@@onesmexyredneck I think fake drama and scripted fighting is annoying. Its great that these guy have a friendly competition between gentlemen.

Have you seen forged in fire? It's similar

[@tvgwide7861]

They can't really cheat help or copy off each other, so there wouldn't be reason for them to be really competitive

[@FimbongBass]

At the end of the day, moonshiners try and stick together, passing down the knowledge to younger folk is what keeps the tradition going and all moonshiners know thats the most important thing

[@thecannabiskidfortier6219]

The one thing the first guy did wrong was, not labeling the jars of which ones he tasted.

[@zephroth]

As a brewer this is so weird watching. Like a good chunk of what makes it good or bad is in the mash. Tail end and processing matter as well. For an overall good product you have to control both.

[@dannym2359]

I think they gave them all the same starting mash with that in mind. That being said, it felt like they thought the larger portion of flavor came from the distilling process and not how you mash. I could also be wrong, since I have never made any liquor, only been a consumer. I do think it made it more fair when searching for a master distiller though, because they had to show their skill when it comes to the tail end of the process, where the master distiller of any liquor producer is going to be held the most accountable. That being said, the old white dude was the only one who looked like he was keeping track of what he had tasted and where it was, because he at least gave the impression that he "knew" which jar had the best liquor in it.

[@slazerlombardi]

These guys are mash geniuses. They just decided to have it done right to make the competition fair enough.

[@BigRichfrank]

@@Aaron-zu3xn yeah I don't use yeast I didn't collect my self. I think the yeast and the water is the most important. .. I do like brown sugar because it still has the molasses. But u don't get the woodie/bamboo hints like cane has. Brown sugar also takes a bit longer to convert.. but personally wild yeast is the way to go. 🍻

[@christimko9296]

Best homemade liquor we made came from a group of beer guy’s that made “Meade” …. They didn’t like it. Honestly tasted like shit. We did a run through the still… turning it into high proof honey liquor…. Untempered, it was smooth right off the worm, best I’ve ever tasted, I’ve tasted quite a few.

[@brandongreene9615]

Yea honeyshine is the best. Hands down. More people are starting to make it nowadays and it’s the easiest thing to make. Just add water and yeast to honey, let it sit for about a month (takes longer to ferment than grain) then distill it. I take a little piece of sassafras root and stick it in the jar. Makes it look like a perfect whiskey color in just a day and adds a super nice root beer flavor.

[@kinsmart7294]

@@brandongreene9615 If you want an better and more clean fermentation with honey you need to add yeast nutrients, not enough nitrogen and minerals in honey for the yeast to work properly.
