Permanent Brew is an expensive upgrade, but with an effective midgame it can be afforded in [[CHIMPS]] in time for the mid-80's on most maps. It stands out the most on Least Cash [[Boss Events]], which demand an army of cheap, highly buffable towers against all stages, and extreme [[Freeplay]], which demands maximum buffs on every tower on screen. Some strong candidates for Permanent Brew include: {{BTD6|Sun Avatar}}, 3-1-0 {{BTD6|Destroyer}}, {{BTD6|Bloonjitsu}} with {{BTD6|Shinobi Tactics}}, and 2-0-4 {{BTD6|Overdrive}}.

Despite its low range and the inability to retain its buff when sold or sacrificed, there are multiple ways to apply its buffs widely across a map. The simplest is to use {{BTD6|Support Chinook}} or {{BTD6|Dan D'Monke}}'s Reposition ability to move it. [[Deadeye]] or [[Bounty Hunter]]'s Take Aim abilities improve its range temporarily, enough so that it can target additional towers outside its normal range. {{BTD6|Dark Knight}} and above can also be moved around the map to keep adding new targets later on. A few maps do have movable platforms that can allow Permanent Brew to keep finding new targets, with a notable example being [[Geared]]'s small inner gear.

Versus [[Lych (BTD6)|Lych]], the buff can still work before Tier 5, as Lych has limited buff-stealing range until then.

Permanent Brew largely does not require a crosspath as none of them will affect the potency of its buffs, but {{BTD6|Faster Throwing|Alchemist}} can be optimal for time-sensitive scenarios such as Boss Events.
