a cold one on the beach is good but if you’re hiking up into the mountains and when you get to your campsite and open a lukewarm beer … that beer is so good
not much can compare
ok so this example only pertains to backpacking but I stand firm on it
We took gin, a bottle of tonic water syrup, and a lemon. The tannins in the river water it was mixed with making it look like a cup of tea in no way detracted from the experience.
Your other trick is to decant the alcohol into a stainless steel drink bottle. Saw so many people pulling glass bottles of spirits out of their pack, lotta extra weight to lug about with you.
there’s no comparison…

I’m way too nervous to try river water.

those old fashioned wine skins are pretty good but they make plastic bottles that almost weight nothing and compress. Those are what I use
If you ever stay at an alpine lake, bring a mesh bag and store them in the lake. Nice cold beverages.
