Hospitality Manager's Guide to Wines, Beers, and Spirits (2nd Edition) Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book by Albert W.A. Schmid is full of interesting, historical details regarding the history of wines, beers and spirits. His Louisville roots are evident when one reads his sections on Kentucky Bourbon. Bourbon drinkers will drool! Wines are segmented "by the grape" which makes understanding the large variety of wineries and varietals very easy and simple. This book gives an excellent overview of wines, beers and spirits -- from the way they are produced to the myriad of ways they can be paired with your favorite foods!

This introduction to the history, science and varieties of alcoholic beverages is essential for today\'s hospitality manager. Written as a practical guide, this book helps managers understand wines, beers and spirits–from the history of alcohol to the marketing and selling of it. The user-friendly approach teaches wine by the grape, beers by the type of yeast used in fermentation, and spirits by breaking them into two categories (aged or non-aged and fruit or grain-based). This edition includes a new forward by Ken Rubin, a logical reorganization of early chapters, and material devoted to the management and marketing of beverage operations.
