In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter and olive oil together. Add onions; stir to coat in the fat; cook undisturbed for 5 minutes.
Stir; add in salt, pepper, sugar and thyme; stir; cover; let cook. Stir occasionally until onions are soft and a deep golden in color. Reduce heat if onions are browning too soon.
Add in beer; scrape up any bits from the bottom of the skillet; remove pan from the heat.
On a preheated griddle or in a large skillet, place a slice of buttered bread, butter-side down; top with a little shredded smoked Gruyere. Add half of the onion mixture; add more cheese. Top with a second slice of buttered bread, butter-side up.
Flip over when the bottom is crispy and golden. Cook until second side is crispy and golden.
