Charlie Papazian, "the Johnny Appleseed of good beer," as an old friend describes him, "or maybe the Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters and Joey Ramone of beer, overthrowing the status quo," lives about six miles north of downtown Boulder, Colorado, at the end of a rutted dirt road, in a modest two-story home with views of the Rocky Mountains. He'd fallen in love with the place on sight. The isolated location, the light, the chortling brook in the backyard - perfect. Except for one thing. "You have to understand that I was used to brewing in basements," he said when I visited him a few months ago. "And this house has no basement! So I had this vision. I'd convert the garage into a single-use facility, the ideal beer-brewing space."
