The correct way to punctuate this sentence is by using commas to offset the word "however" as it is an interrupter. Option A is incorrect because it does not contain commas to demarcate the interrupting word. Option B, while using a semi-colon to separate the clauses, still requires the use of commas to set off the interrupter "however."
