Toby and Andy join Scott on a boat trip into Prince William Sound in search of the perfect icebergs for their vodka. Meanwhile, Chrissy takes Shane along as she faces her fear of bees in order to collect some of Alaska's fireweed honey for a "Buzz" order.

The Alaska Distillery uses melt-water from 10,000 year old glaciers in proofing their vodka, so Toby and Andy join Scott on a boat trip into Prince William Sound in search of the perfect icebergs. Meanwhile, Chrissy takes Shane along as she faces her fear of bees in order to collect some of Alaska's award-winning fire weed honey, which the distillery needs if it's going to make enough of their "BUZZ" flavor vodka.

Toby wants to use the safe, ginger-like root of poisonous Devil's Club for a spicy line of vodka; the team crosses Eklutna Lake to forage some; Scott tests proofs for a hot flavor.

Convinced that they can distill a special vodka under the Northern Lights and in subzero temperatures, the team travels to Chena Hot Springs, hitching a ride on a tracked vehicle up a mountain before strapping on their snow shoes with their still in tow.

The distillery creates a new flavor using the springtime growths from the tips of the Sitka Spruce tree, which requires climbing to the top of a nearly 200-foot tree. Proceeds are then donated to Alaskan rain forests conservation efforts.

The distillery is commissioned to create both a new vodka flavor and a new cocktail for a local restaurant. The team heads out on a shrimping boat and must figure out how to make a tasty spirit with Alaska’s particularly sweet species of shrimp.

Toby, Scott and Shane set off in search of an arctic fungus called chaga which Toby thinks they can make into a vodka, while Andy and Chrissy set out to create a birch barrel so that the distillery can age its own "Birch Barrel Whiskey".

When Shane hears about a preserved patch of rose hips - the final ingredient in a recipe that the distillery has been working on for months - Toby and Andy join him on a dogsledding adventure through Denali National Park to collect the little buds.

After long treks through glacial terrain and bear habitats, the distillery team finally comes across a field of the ingredient they're in search of - fireweed. They quickly return to the distillery to bottle the essence of the flower in a vodka.

The Alaska Distillery team sets out to find yet another unique ingredient: ice worms. Toby, Andy, and Shane risk their lives to fly to the top of the glacier mountains, while Scott stays behind to update the company's antiquated machinery.
