Weird that this got nerfed. It was already undeniably worse than Black Ox Brew, which fills the same purpose.

Although as a passive, it's nice for more casual tanks :P
Not judging!

A lot of the guides for Brewmaster (including the one here on wowhead and the one on icy veins) suggest that Light Brewing is best for beginners or those who want to breeze through content, and that the true brews all take Black Ox Brew instead. But Black Ox Brew sucks -- and I have some napkin math to back that statement up.

Now I'm not the best or most experienced Brewmaster, but I did notice as I did my heroics and low-level mythics that Black Ox Brew seemed to be more trouble than it was worth, at least for me. Its supposed DPS benefits seemed negligible when compared to the clear and impactful DPS boost of Spitfire, since as a Brewmaster I never run out of energy anyway, and its brew recharge mechanic is ... awkward at best. I found myself very rarely hitting the button, except for when I wanted to double-tap Purifying or use both Purifying and Ironskin at the same time. After trying out Light Brewing on a whim, I found that I always had plenty of charges available, even if I wanted to use purifying twice in a row, and never had to worry about anything.

After doing some math, here's what I came up with:

Black Ox Brew
14 second recharge with my haste (530 or 7.79%)
3 charges
+ 3 charges per 120 seconds
Restores your energy as well (possible DPS boost?)

When used on cooldown:
11.57 brews per 120 seconds
When not used on cooldown:
30 seconds after cooldown:
-> 13.71 brews per 150 seconds
60 seconds after cooldown:
-> 15.86 brews per 180 seconds

Light Brewing
11 second recharge with my haste
4 charges
Passive

10.9 brews per 120 seconds
13.64 brews per 150 seconds
15 brews per 165 seconds
16.36 brews per 180 seconds

So these numbers aren't exactly mind-blowing. What they say basically is that if I wait more than around 45 seconds after Black Ox Brew comes off cooldown to use it, I am wasting beer. WASTING BEER. However, if it's used within 45 seconds of it becoming available, and when you have 0 charges and a long cooldown (as in you JUST chugged your last charge), then it's Light Brewing that wastes the beer. In my case, since I used it less than every three minutes, and frequently used it when the cooldown was somewhere in the middle, Black Ox was typically worse by the numbers. And it felt worse, too, since it was an extra button I needed to press before I got my sweet, sweet damage smoothing.

I went to wowprogress.com and checked on all of the Brewmasters to make it into the top 150 tanks over all. Now, it's Friday evening, and that's not usually when guilds tend to raid, so chances are that most of these guys are talented for dungeons. Maybe if I check back on a Tuesday, I'll find something else. But this is what I found:

Make of this what you will, and if you're reading this then remember to check the date because these talents may have changed by the time you read this. But for now, I'm sticking to Light Brewing -- until I get the balls to try Spitfire out.
