Do moonshiners get paid by discovery

The Discovery docuseries, Moonshiners, has gained a large following in the past nine seasons.

The show follows people who, seemingly illegally, produce moonshine throughout the Appalachian Mountains of Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, and the Carolinas.

The group brews the whiskey beverage deep in the wilderness, attempting to evade the authorities.

Viewers follow the moonshiners on misadventures of whiskey production techniques and everyday life. With colorful names like Digger and Tickle, audiences have grown to love these modern-day bootleggers.

However, moonshining can be a very “whiskey” business, since it is technically illegal activity.

With the series being broadcast to millions of viewers, fans have been left to wonder how the moonshiners do not get caught and arrested.

Fans and authorities react

Since the show premiered in late 2011, there has been no known crackdown on the moonshining activities.

This has caused the Twitterverse to lash out with claims that the show may be more scripted than real.
