  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise (homemade or Hellmann's), 1/4 cup beer (any light-bodied beer works well), 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon celery seed, and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add 1/4 teaspoon caraway seeds (optional).
  3. Add the shredded cabbage, green pepper, and red onion to the bowl with the dressing. Gently toss to coat evenly.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for the best flavor and texture!
