Pretty damn happy to finally be able to say this - Our good friend John Bentz officially opened Firehouse Shine Co in Middleport, Ohio last Saturday! 🥳 🚒

Unfortunately, we weren't able to make it up for the grand opening, but we're extremely happy for him - and pretty damn proud to see all that work finally turn into an open distillery.

The photo is from Popcorn Sutton Jam earlier this year - John's showin' off a jar of his Blazing Blueberry Cobbler at the Flaming Aces Distillery LLC booth. 🔥 🥧

If you're anywhere around Middleport tomorrow, Firehouse Shine Co. will be open from 2-8pm at 803 South Third Ave.

Stop by, check the place out, and show John and the crew some support. 🍻

Congratulations, Brother. ✊

Let's see if Mark can prove Digger wrong with a whole bunch of soybeans on tonight's Moonshiners! 😂

That seems like a pretty good excuse to pull this one back out - Shana (AKA Miss Kara Loveheart) with Mark at Hillbilly Jam 2025, fresh from the Pin-Up Contest. 😄

Only an hour and a half until the new episode at 8pm EST on Discovery! 🍻

Been a few days since we dug somethin' weird out of the archives, so... Sasquatches! 😎

This was back on March 16th, 2024, during Squatch-A-Palooza at Drop Zone's Knoxville location.

The one and only Floating Squatch (on the left) was flyin' around all day, Tracy Arvin was there representin' his Smokey Mtn. Squatch Shine , we did some axe throwin' with Til Ragnarok, and freakin' Turtleman was there - LIVE ACTION! 🐢

If anybody recognizes the other sasquatch, or knows the other vendors, please tag 'em below...or tag yourself, if you were there havin' a good time! 😂

It's one of the more unusual group pictures we've managed to collect over the years. 😁

Awesome seeing Henry and Austin Law back at it with Tim Smith and Tickle on last night's episode of Moonshiners! ✊

That gives us a good excuse to pull this one from the archives - all four of us at Popcorn Jam 2025.

Yes, Austin is that much taller than Big Beard. 😂

Less than THIRTY MINUTES until a new Moonshiners! 😄

Since Kelly Williamson, and Amanda Bryant, are back in the mix, here’s a shot of us with Kelly at White Lightning Trail Festival back in 2023.

We’d only met Kelly for the first time a few weeks earlier, at Adventure Distilling, so this one goes pretty damn far back. 😂

Catch the new episode tonight at 8pm EST on Discovery! 🤘

Looks like Jerry's gonna learn an important lesson about jalapeños tonight! 🤣 🌶️

Lookin’ forward to tomorrow night’s episode of Moonshiners, especially now that the Amanda & Kelly team is back together! 😁
..and that gives us an excuse to share this pic of us with Amanda Bryant : Moonshiners & Master Distiller at Hillbilly Jam 2025 in Maggie Valley. 🤘

Looks like there’s gonna be plenty of corn on tomorrow night’s episode - catch it at 8pm EST on Discovery! 🌽 🔥

Here’s a cool one from 2023 - the moonshiner group photo from the White Lightning Trail Festival. 😮

You’ve got Amanda Bryant, Richard Landry, Moonshiner Pat, Steve Barker, Hatch, Reddog Towery, and Crazy Chuck all in one place...along with a whole bunch of other great people whose names we didn’t catch. 😅

If you recognize somebody we missed, tag ’em!

We had a damn good time that day, and again at White Lightning this year - already lookin’ forward to next year. 😄

The season premiere of Moonshiners on Discovery last night was a damn good time! 😄
..and of course Digger didn’t waste much time before decidin' that if there was a whole lot of corn available, they might as well go BIG. 😂

So here’s another one from the archives - The two of us with Eric “Digger” Manes at Adventure Distilling Co. during the joint Mark Ramsey & Josh Owens Birthday Bash on August 31, 2024.

Can’t wait to see what everybody gets into next week! 😁

Moonshiner Jerry wants 👉 YOU to watch the season premiere of Moonshiners tonight! 😄

Here’s another one from way back in 2023 - Moonshiner Jerry Benson, master of backwoods engineering, at Hillbilly Jam in Maggie Valley.

The new season of Moonshiners premieres TONIGHT at 8pm EST on Discovery - so you’ve got just under an hour and a half to get your s**t together. 🤣
