Moonshiners Pays Heartbreaking Tribute to the Late Kenny Law
Moonshiners Mourn a Legend: Kenny Law Remembered in Heartfelt Tribute Episode
March 11, 2025 – Appalachia
The Moonshiners community came together on March 11 to honor one of their own—Kenny Law, a bold and beloved figure in the world of illegal distilling and a standout personality on Discovery Channel’s hit series Moonshiners. Law passed away on January 14, 2025, at the age of 68, leaving behind a legacy of grit, humor, and defiance that fans and fellow distillers say will never be forgotten.
To pay tribute, Moonshiners dedicated a special segment to Kenny in their latest episode, capturing the essence of a man who was as fearless as he was unforgettable.
A Tribute to a Moonshine Maverick
The March 11th episode featured a moving remembrance of Kenny Law, spotlighting his most memorable moments on the show. Fellow Moonshiners Josh Owens and Steven “Tickle” Tickle shared emotional stories, painting a picture of a man who was tough, funny, and unapologetically real.
The tribute included a montage of Kenny’s iconic lines—words that perfectly captured his take-no-prisoners approach to life and moonshining.

“You don’t take no chances, you ain’t going to make no money… It’s time to roll with it.”
That line, repeated throughout the episode, became a rallying cry for the moonshining spirit Kenny embodied.
Rough, Honest, and Unfiltered
Known for his no-nonsense attitude and sharp tongue, Kenny wasn’t one to sugarcoat his opinions. In one unforgettable clip, when asked if he was going to help or just keep talking, he fired back:
“Stick it up your ass. I’m easy going—but you push my button, and then you done stepped over the line.”
He also laughed about the wild times of his past, joking about brushes with the law:
“How many times did y’all go to prison again?”
“I went twice. Fighting, shooting… a little bit of violence. But that goes with the job.”
Despite the rough edges, Kenny Law was a man deeply respected by those who knew him. He was a mentor, a storyteller, and a keeper of the moonshiner tradition.
Fans and Cast Remember Kenny Law
Following the episode, tributes poured in across social media. Fellow cast member and distiller Amanda Bryant shared:
“Rest in peace, Kenny Law.”
The official Moonshiners Facebook page honored him as a “true moonshine maverick,” reflecting on the indelible mark he left on the show and the distilling culture.
A Legacy Carved in Smoke and Spirit
Kenny Law was more than a TV personality. He was a fighter, a craftsman, and a man who lived by his own rules. His larger-than-life presence made him a fan favorite, and his legacy will live on in every jar of shine, every rebellious spirit, and every tale swapped under the stars.
As his fellow Moonshiners raise a jar in his honor, one thing is clear:
Kenny Law may be gone, but he’ll never be forgotten.
