- In another skillet, heat half of the butter and the garlic puree until it turns light brown.
- Add remaining butter, the bay leaves and mustard and bring to a boil without stopping whisking.
- Add the beer and bring to a boil again to evaporate the alcohol (around 5 minutes boiling).

- Turn the heat to low and keep whisking the sauce without stopping.
- Check seasoning, adding more salt and pepper if necessary.
- Turn off the heat when you get a homogenized sauce (do not overcook or you will get a sauce with small chunks of egg in it).
