On a special Master Distiller Tournament, five champion outlaw distillers battle it out in a backwoods battle royale. Amanda, Richard, Kelly, Tater and Mike pit their ingenuity against each other in a series of sudden-elimination challenges.

After defeating four expert moonshiners, only two champions remain to compete in the final distillation, running an apple brandy direct from a mountain stream. After a blind tasting, only one moonshiner will emerge as Master of the Backwoods.
