I have noticed that some users are having issues getting started with Crypto Brewmaster on the Hive blockchain. The game is only in it's early stages and still developing so I can understand that there can be some confusion about how to get your first beer made and some of the game mechanics. 

The first point to make is that you can play for free. You will not be able to brew a beer straight away however as you must obtain the ingredients first.

You will first need to head to the pub from the home screen and from there click on the 'Bulletin Board' in the top right corner of the pub screen. This will bring you to your currently available 'DailyQuests'. The completion of these quests will reward you with certain ingredients for brewing. Once claimed, these ingredients will be stored in your backpack which can be accessed from the bottom right corner of the Crypto Brewmaster home screen.

Certain DailyQuests will ask you to visit a website but this is only optional and to encourage education of the beer brewing process. The quests, once started, just require a certain amount of time to expire. The quests require energy, you will be able to do a certain amount but then must wait for the following day for your energy to refill. Alternatively you can refill your energy by buying and drinking beer in the pub once you are more accustomed to and familiarised with the game. 

You will only be able to brew your first beer once you have acquired some ingredients from each of the ingredient categories. I was a little confused to start as I had obtained brewing water and plenty of hops and barley malt and still couldn't click 'start' and brew at the brewing factory. I was however still missing 'yeast'. It was the last thing I obtained and solved my brewing problem!

I feel this is probably the biggest sticking point for newbies and the main point of possible confusion. Once you have brewed a batch of beer you can sell it to the pub and proceed from there.
