Method
Preheat the grill on medium.
To a large pot, add the beer, onion, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then add in the bratwurst. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, or until onions are soft. Transfer bratwurst to a plate and continue cooking onions until the sausages are off the grill, about 10 more minutes.
Brush the grill with olive oil. Add the bratwurst and cook, undisturbed, for 3 minutes. Rotate and continue cooking until browned and the internal temperature reaches 160°F on an instant-read thermometer, 5-8 more minutes.
Transfer bratwurst to a platter and serve family style with onions, buns, mustard, mayonnaise, and sauerkraut on the side.
