Drain the sardines and capers from the oil, and stir the crème fraîche until smooth. Now, combine the sardines, paprika, mustard, and capers with a little crème fraîche in a bowl and mash. Add a little beer and a little more crème fraîche until all the liquid is used up. Now add the crushed onion (I press it through a garlic press). Let the cream sit for about 2 hours and serve on toasted ciabatta or on its own.
