Maybe I´m wrong and that´s a recipe I´ve never heard of, but I think there´s a big mistake in it. I´m living in germany all of my live and I´ve never ever seen anybody cook his bratwurst or even heard of it. It belongs on a grill or into a pan and not into a pot of boiling water! If it was me, I´d make them as follows: Put the brats in a pan and fry them on medium heat, brush them with some of the beer every once in a while, and when they are done put the remaining ingrediensts for the sauce into the pan.

Nice trouble-free brat recipe here. I simmered for 15 minutes then grilled them as secret said to do. Which added a nice crunch to the outside. With the sauce, I simmered on low until it was reduced by half.
