'''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 a very potent T5 for permanent [[Stronger Stimulant (BTD6)|Stronger Stimulant]] and [[Acidic Mixture Dip (BTD6)|Acidic Mixture Dip]] buffs to large amounts of towers surrounding this Alchemist; each tower essentially gains +2 damage to Ceramics and MOAB-class with extra pierce, attack speed, and range. It's quite an expensive T5, but with an effective mid-game saveup, this can be afforded in [[CHIMPS]] in time for the mid-80's on most maps. It stands out the most on Least Cash Bosses, which demand an army of cheap highly buffable towers against all Boss stages, and extreme Freeplay, which demand maximum buffs on every tower on screen.

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.


Despite its low range and the restriction of not selling or sacrificing to retain its buff, there are multiple ways to counter this. The simplest is [[Support Chinook (BTD6)|Support Chinook]]; it allows the Permanent Brew to be moved without towers losing its buff.

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.
