→Strategy: Surely this is enough to justify removing the strategy needed notice, right? Decided to actually include double alching towers despite it pretty much requiring isolated alchs. |

Berserker Brew is the Alchemist's path 1 tier 3 upgrade in Bloons TD 6. It allows the Alchemist to throw an additional potion to towers within its range, which grants them the Berserker Brew buff. This buff grants towers +1 damage, +2 pierce, +10% range, and reduces their attack cooldown by 10% (for an increase of ~11.11% in attack speed). This buff lasts for 25 shots or 5 seconds (40 shots or 6 seconds with 3-2-0) on a tower, whichever is shorter. Berserker Brew throws this buff potion once every 8 seconds (6.4s with Faster Throwing). After receiving a buff potion, the target tower cannot receive another potion for 5 seconds (4 seconds with 3-2-0).
Berserker Brew is always thrown to the nearest eligible tower within the Alchemist's range. Most attacking towers are eligible for the buff, but the following cannot receive it:
- Alchemist
- Beast Handler
- Etienne
- Benjamin below level 7
- Paragons
- Dungeon Statue
Berserker Brew cannot affect sub-towers or towers that do not attack (e.g. Banana Farm, Monkey Village without Primary Expertise).

Strategy
[edit | edit source]This section was last updated for: version 51.2
Berserker Brew is a versatile buff that can be applied on many types of towers for a signficant boost in DPS. For a cost slightly less than the Jungle Drums village, Berserker Brew can greatly improve the effectiveness of a single tower. Its best use cases are for mid-game transitions into powerful T4's and T5's. Additionally, it accepts full discounts from Monkey Commerce, which reinforces strategies that boost multiple towers each.
Due to the flat damage and pierce increase per projectile, this brew is best applied onto towers that attack moderately fast or have multiple projectiles per shot, such as Bloonjitsu, Triple Guns, and Neva-Miss Targeting, as well as decently fast-attacking towers with plenty of projectiles per shot such as Overdrive and 3-1-0 Destroyer. Super Monkeys get very large benefits from the buff, but consume it far too fast to be reliable, limiting its value below t3. Berserker Brew should be placed closest to the tower that needs the buff and avoid having other towers in range if the Acidic Mixture Dip buff is needed (e.g. Abyssal Warrior).
Compared to Stronger Stimulant, Berserker Brew is less than half the price if discounted or if not crosspathed, and using two Berserker Brews can be preferable to upgrading to Stronger Stimulant, if the second Acidic Mixture Dip is useful. A Stronger Stimulant buff lasts for more than twice as long as Berserker Brew time-wise, but two 3-2-0 brews provide a much better shot limit. This is most relevant when buffing two valuable, fast-attacking towers, but since x-2-0 also reduces the reapplication time for brews, 2 3-2-0 Alchs can both buff one single fast-attacking tower, provided they are isolated to avoid them buffing other towers.
Crosspaths help improve overall uptime of the brew, though crosspaths are situational. 3-0-1 gives slightly more uptime than 3-2-0, not counting shot amounts, while 3-2-0 is often preferred if the target shoots quickly. Acid Pool is avoided because it has no impact on the brews. Crosspathing can help a tower get higher uptime on brew buffs, but if brew uptime would pass 100%, the Berserker Brew Alchemist can start tossing potions to other towers instead. With Jungle Drums and no MK, assuming buffs expire by time rather than shot count, 3-0-1 gives 92% uptime, 3-2-0 gives 88% uptime.

| “ | Alchemist is already widely used, but we thought of an interesting way to add some more crosspath value and wanted to take the chance to perform a small rebalance at the same time. — Update notes |

| “ | Alchemist has been given a small push towards the current underused Brew crosspath. Previously this crosspath only applied a benefit to Brew & Stimulant but now along with a buff to that, Acidic Mixture Dip will also gain a slight benefit from the crosspath. — Update notes |
” |
- 3-2-0
- Perishing Potions now increases Acidic Mixture Dip charges per stack by 3

- Acidic Mixture Dip: Can now target Glue Gunners with Corrosive Glue and above
- Base potion attack: no longer has single-layer damage (undocumented)
| “ | Acidic Mixture Dip stacking from multiple alchemists / stalling tactics too effectively lowered use of other lead counter options in a way we didn’t like, so the maximum stacks here without Permabrew has been reduced considerably. — Update notes |
” |
- Acidic Mixture Dip max number of stacks reduced ― 200 → 40
| “ | Alchemist 220 stands out a little too effectively in the crosspath efficiency of Acidic Mixture Dip uptime combined with the reduced forced downtime at 320 and so is being reduced. — Update notes |
” |
- 3-2-0
- Acidic Mixture Dip: Crosspath bonus to Acidic Mixture Dip buff reduced ― +3 → +2
- Note: Shot amount reduced from 13 to 12
| “ | Acidic Mixture Dip is a strong offender removing many weaknesses in the game for exceptionally low of a cost. — Update notes |
” |
- Acidic Mixture dip max stacks reduced ― 40 → 30
| “ | As groups of Berserker Brew seem proportionally too good compared to upgrading to Stronger Stimulant in some cases, we are slightly shifting price down into T3, keeping the total price of Stronger Stimulant the same but adding up more if choosing to spam T3 Brews. — Update notes |
” |
- Upgrade cost increased ― $1,250 → $1,300
| “ | As a small tax to low tier Alchemists we are moving cost from Stronger Stimulant into Berserker Brew, this shouldn’t hurt much for general play and keeps un-discounted Stimulant the same. — Update notes |
” |
- Upgrade cost increased ― $1,300 → $1,400
- All buffing potions: Should no longer fall on other towers that aren't the intended target (bug fix)
- Note: Patches an exploit regarding quickly buying a Permanent Brew and landing brew on towers not normally able to accept brew (e.g. Etienne, Beast Handlers, non-5xx Villages)
- Description changed ― Throws special brew to nearby Monkeys giving them extra damage, range and attack speed. → Throws special brew to a nearby Monkey giving it increased damage, range, and attack speed briefly. Multiple Monkeys can be buffed at once.
