Yes, it does almost taste sweet compared to water from California and the Southwest.
My parents have a well up in the Puget Sound. I did a blind taste test at a family event, comparing Arrowhead bottled water to their well. The taste of the well water won in my small sample (10 people). Most people also guessed wrong, when asked to hazard a guess as to which was the bottled water, choosing the well water instead. Our water is not as good as theirs, but it's still better than Dasani or Aquafina, both of which are really just municipal water run through a reverse osmosis process.
