They advertise electrolytes as a marketing gimmick so people but it thinking its different and more beneficial than the water coming from a faucet.. In reality all water assuming it's not pure water coming from a spring has electrolytes added when it is treated in a plant or bottling facility.
 
Haha as far as bottles water to drink goes I like smart water but I go with the 88 cent gallon jugs of spring water for my brewing.. So far so good
 
You can put this on every label

I'd say smart water is clean but not sure about compatibility with your beer. I guess it's worth a try..?
 
Brewing with smart water would be stupid expensive. While for a brewer, not all waters are equal, smart water is just a marketing ploy.

Unless you've been brewing with distilled water, you already have electrolytes in your beer anyway - oh wait, even then you have electrolytes. Guess what malt and hops bring to the table.
 
Could brewing smart water put electrolytes jn my beer?

Unless you're using 100% distilled/RO water, you already have electrolytes in your water. All tap water has significant amounts of a variety of electrolytes, minerals, and other "impurities".

Brewing with something like SmartWater would be stupid expensive and gain you nothing over just plain tap water.
