In a large skillet or pot, add the butter and melt over medium heat.
Once the butter has melted, add the sliced onion and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
Add the bratwurst sausages to the skillet. Brown them on all sides for about 5 minutes in total.
Pour in the low-carb beer, ensuring the sausages are partially submerged. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Add salt and black pepper to the beer mixture. Cover the skillet and let the sausages simmer for 15 minutes, allowing them to cook through and absorb the beer flavor.
After simmering, remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Allow the beer to reduce slightly for an additional 5 minutes, which will intensify the flavor.
Meanwhile, heat a separate pan over medium heat, adding olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the sauerkraut and sauté for 3-5 minutes until heated through.
Serve the beer brats with a dollop of mustard, topped with sautéed sauerkraut and fresh parsley if desired.
