Beer and Sauerkraut Cake ! ? ! image

This is an old German recipe from the Salzer side of the family. My Uncle Billy use to make this cake just to play the game... "Guess what is in it!" My Uncle Billy was a wonderful man, a great cook, and loved to play little jokes on people.... He worked in the food industry most of his life.
