I made this exactly as written and used Guinness. We liked how it added flavour to the pork sausages, but for us the onions were just too overpowering. I'm not sure if it was the variety of onions I used, ordinary brown onions, maybe leeks would be better? And if I made again I would add some garlic I think.

I love bratwurst or any sausage for that matter and this recipe was great. It was easy to make and the flavor of the Guinness was interesting. I did have to got to a couple of stores to find a single bottle. I will definately make this again!
