1 Tablespoon butter
1 Tablespoon all purpose flour
1/2 cup milk

Instructions:
Melt 1 Tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onion and brats; cook approximately 10 minutes, turning occasionally to brown all sides.
Add beer to pan, reserving 1/4 cup for the sauce. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 15 minutes, until beer has reduced and brats are no longer pink inside.
Prepare beer cheese sauce by melting 1 Tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in flour and seasonings and cook, stirring, 1-2 minutes. Add milk and beer all at once. Remove from heat and stir in shredded cheese and horseradish.
Place brats in buns, then top with beer cheese sauce, crumbled bacon, and minced chives.
