Place buns, cut side down, on grill. Cook 1 to 2 minutes or until buns are lightly toasted. Place bratwurst in buns. Using slotted spoon, spoon sauerkraut on top of bratwurst. Note: To broil, place bratwurst and buns on broiler pan; broil 4 to 6 inches from heat using times above as a guide.

NOTES : For a richer beer flavor, use a heartier dark ale or stout.
