I make my own using the device Kevin Costner used in Waterworld to make his own piss drinkable. Fortunately I have several thousand gallons of Kevin Costner's piss or the machine would be useless.
 
I liked appolinari when it was 99 cents.

Now that its almost three bucks it doesn't taste as good anymore.
 
I like sparkling water, so probably Gerolsteiner. I also like bottled flat water, but I'm a little resentful of spending money on unflavored, uncarbonated soda. The water many times costs more than processed beverages.
 
I like Dasani because it goes through reverse osmosis.

Some other brands like Aquafina come from municipal reservoirs with no filtering process.
 
I chose poland spring.

I guess I drink a few of those though, since they are the same filtered water that they use in soda (i.e. aquafina is the water they use in pepsi, dasani in coke).
 
None, tap water with some ice in it is all I need, the entire bottled water industry is a sad joke on stupid people..

You obviously don't live in Europe with 100 year old pipes.

You can definitely tell the difference between tap water (heavy, yucky) and bottled water from the mountains.

It's extremely wasteful though. I could hardly think of a worse way to transport water than one bottle at a time. If I had bad municipal water, I'd process it at my house.

For the love of god they've had a full century and no one's replaced any plumbing?, I know in olden times it was much safer to drink beer and/or ale as a lot of water in Europe was crappy as hell, that problem should be solved by now..

Lead pipes help sweeten water :^P
 
Water collected in glass bottles from an actual natural spring (preferably a spring with a low TDS count and slightly above neutral pH) is the best.

Even when it has beaver fever? 😛

Seriously though, doesn't it commonly have a sulfur smell/taste when you get it directly from a spring? I've never drank it so I don't personally know, I've just been near a natural spring that smelt like sulfur (and people were commenting that there was a slight sulfur taste also).

my favorite bottled water was the gallon jug of ozarka i got a gas station. why? because it cost 3 fucking dollars. i stupidly thought 'hey what if this major national park doesn't have water?' faucets everywhere, fountains everywhere
 
If I have to drink bottled like I am at some sports event or something, I will try to avoid Dasani, Aquafina.. They just have this strange taste to me... I just buy grocery store or Costco brand water usually for the rare time I buy it.

When I am at home I just drink tap. Water everywhere is different though, and the water here is fine.

Depends on the source. All water is different, and some tastes better than others. Sulfur springs were historically used for health benefits. Dunno how healthy they really are. I've had awesome water from springs, and some that's not so good.
