Beverage Management as Career Track
Mt. Hood partners with
McMenamins on management class
Hoke Harden’s first batch of home
crafted wine showed potential - until
it exploded. No worries, however,
since the nine-year-old was more
interested in the science of fermen­
tation than actual imbibing.
Now, with three decades of expe­
rience and education, Harden is a
world-renowned expert in all facets
of the world of wine and spirits -
from retailing, buying and market­
ing to critiquing, judging and edu­
cating.
It’s that latter area, education
that brings Harden to Mt. Hood
Community College. He will teach a
two-part class this summer called
B everage M anagem ent: Beers,
Sakes and Ciders.
M H C C is p a rtn e rin g w ith
McMenamins Edgefield to provide
the three-credit, 30-hourcourse. The
class will meet in an area above the
Pow er Station Pub at historic
Edgefield. McMenamins staff will
demonstrate beverage production,
illustrate the basics of fermentation
and provide tours of the brewing
and distilling operations.
The class is offered through
M HCC’s Hospitality and Tourism
program and provides education
into the entire scope of beverage
operations. Resort managers, res­
taurant managers and hoteliers must
be familiar with all aspects of be ver-
age management, such as product,
service, presentation, inventory,
cost control, training new staff and
other areas.

Hoke Harden teaches a two-part class this summer at Mt. Hood
Community College called Beverage Management: Beers, Sakes
and Ciders. Harden is a world-renowned expert in all facets o f
wine and spirits, from retailing, buying and marketing to critiqu­
ing, judging and educating.
Harden says the class “provides
a passionate ‘craft and knowledge’
approach to students. It is a very
Oregonian (or rather, more closely
Portlandian) attitude at a fairly inex­
pensive and practical cost level.”
He says that beverage manage­
ment is a popular area of study be­
cause “service jobs are the new
focus in the U.S. economy and the
best qualified and educated people
will get the best jobs.”
