Really? How? Keg and c02? Do you add anything, like citric acid? Im a home brewer, I’ve got a kegerator set up with 3 kegs. I want to do one with carbonated water some time
It’s pretty normal. I’m american, it’s common here with a little bit of flavor, but the unflavored or very light flavored ones are my favorite. In Europe a lot of times if you ordered water at a restaurant you would have to order “still water” or you would get sparkling water.
Edit: in the German speaking countries and countries around Germany anyway
I am well aware that the Germans think tap water is poisonous, but that’s Germany. They aren’t quite right in the head. The best water is straight out of the tap. Although I understand that in some places it tastes like pee. But in that case why not just buy still water?
I carbonate my own water and drink lots of tea

Something like a SodaStream. https://sodastream.de/
Why on earth would you want to carbonate your water? Fizzy water is just bad.

This one is my favorite, but another good one is Topo Chico
Soda stream is just a CO2 bottle on cold water. It carbonates after an hour or so, or if you shake it.
A better option imo is to buy a big tank of C02 and connect it to a big tank of cold water which in turn has a tap. You probably have all that!

I personally found the taste of plain cold carbonated water… actually good on its own. Otherwise you can add flavor like a canned seltzer would have.
Yes I do have all of that, I may fill one of my 5 gallon kegs with just plain water and see how it goes. Thanks!
Well??
My kegs are full of beer! A barleywine, a oatmeal porter and a ESB. I will probably try it in the summer when they are empty and it’s too hot to brew
