Could either be brother-in-law or sister-in-law's husband. It really depends on close they are to the family. Families with closer ties tend to use the more familiar brother-in-law; more distant relationships call for the less friendly, sister-in-law's husband.

Wait. If it is brother-in-law and she is the sister-in-law, does this mean they are not only husband and wife but also brother and sister?
Don't mind me; I just sitting here mumbling to myself...

I'd go with brother-in-law. If my husband didn't like my brothers-in-law, he might call them "my wife's brother-in-law" or if my currently unmarried sister married a guy we didn't know, he'd probably start off as "my sister-in-law's husband".
