'''Permanent Brew''' is the [[Alchemist (BTD6)|Alchemist]]'s path 1 tier 5 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It upgrades the Alchemist's buffs - both [[Acidic Mixture Dip (BTD6)|Acidic Mixture Dip]] and [[Stronger Stimulant (BTD6)|Stronger Stimulant]] - to become permanent instead of lasting only a limited time. If Permanent Brew is sold or sacrificed, all towers lose the buffs it had applied.

Only newly thrown dips and brews are permanent. Targets that currently have a weaker brew are not given permanent brew immediately; the buff has to run out first. If Permanent Brew is sold or sacrificed, all towers lose these buffs. [[Lych]] can steal the Permanent Brew buff.

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: [[Sun Avatar (BTD6)|Sun Avatar]], 3-1-0 [[Destroyer (BTD6)|Destroyer]], [[Bloonjitsu (BTD6)|Bloonjitsu]] with [[Shinobi Tactics (BTD6)|Shinobi Tactics]], and 2-0-4 [[Overdrive (BTD6)|Overdrive]].
 
Despite its low range and the inability to be sold or sacrificed to retain its buff, there are multiple ways to counter this. The simplest is to use [[Support Chinook (BTD6)|Support Chinook]]'s Reposition ability to move it. [[Dark Knight (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 smaller gear.
 
Permanent Brew largely does not require a crosspath, but [[Faster Throwing (BTD6) (Alchemist)|Faster Throwing]] is optimal for time-sensitive scenarios such as Boss Events.
