Am I the only person who can taste a noticeable difference in the exact same beverages (from the same bottling plant nonetheless) in aluminum cans versus plastic or glass bottles. For me I always seem to think that sodas or energy drinks - especially Mountain Dew - almost always taste better from plastic bottles. There is always like a "hard tap water"-like taste to beverages from cans... :-/
Bottles (whether plastic or glass) are always better tasting, so I'll stick to Bawls in glass bottles.
Is this a sign of Mountain Dew addiction, when you can tell differences like this? It's like being a Dew Connoisseur. "Why yes, this is a vintage 2006 Dew, from the Ayer, Massachusetts bottling plant. And that slight after-taste is a definitive sign of aluminum cans, and quite possibly a tad bit too much citric acid... "
