Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Brewby at none against mncraft.beer's 4. Brewby also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). mncraft.beer's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 3). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. mncraft.beer sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Brewby asks for nothing beyond the download.
Brewby holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: mncraft.beer has 1.2K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
