Fowl Taste

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I've been buying this brand for several years now from Menards and my recent package has a distinctive fowl taste, I first thought it was just something off with my taste buds and then I had another bottle and another just to make sure I wasn't imagining it. So I decided to check the reviews and to my surprise here's more of the same statements. I won't be purchasing anymore!

I'm in my 5th year with NO TASTE OR SMELL, probably COVID related, but I bought a case since it was $1 or so cheaper than the brands next to it. The plastic bottles DON'T STAND UP STRAIGHT!

I guess that's due to the cheap quality of the plastic. Not sure if it's good or not but I won't buy any more.

Change in taste

I agree with the other reviews. Sometime about 2-3 years ago the taste changed. On the older bottles they listed a source somewhere in Michigan. The labels were paper then. Later they dropped the source altogether, but the labels were still paper. Now the labels are plastic and they list 3-4 sources, but the original source is not included. I found a few old bottles and did a blind taste test. I could tell immediately which bottle was the original one. Wish they would go back to the original source. Best drinking water ever! Now it's just like all of the rest, with a slight metallic taste at the end. Not much different than all of the "purified" waters on the market. Very disappointed.

Pros:
  • Used to be best water on the market
Cons:
  • Now it is no different than the rest
  • Source changed

Preferred solution: I would like them to go back to the original source, or at least let me know who bottles water from the original source today.

User's recommendation: Still good value, but not the quality has gone down.

Different taste

Regular drinker of glacier mist... specifically from Menard... last couple cases I've gotten have a very different taste, and it is unpleasant... I love your brand strictly because it had zero taste or smell... this is disappointing... I am weary to buy another case...

Water quality.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Glacier mist has obviously gone to tap water during the pandemic water shortage. It taste horrible, like a low grade water distribution from flint Michigan or somewhere. Iv been drinking it for at least 10 years and the quality fall off is noticeable.
