It doesn't expire technically, water put in bottles is processed in some way to get into the bottles(runs through machines, heated cooled etc) and bottles are plastic (5 gallon jugs are reused so they must go through some disinfecting process and they are man made and can contain things that will alter the taste. so really water doesn't expire but the taste will change over time.

If anyone tells you that water "expires" they are just trying to sell more water! Water doesn't ever expire! Water evaporates! As long as there is water in a sealed bottle and it hasn't evaporated, it is still water and still sanitary.
Water expiring is a trick the bottled water industry has played on people to get them to buy more of their product. Water NEVER expires. Water evaporates. There are more important things to fill your mind besides worrying about water becoming "bad". Someone has really tricked you. Remember, you can't believe everything you read or everything you're told especially in this modern, greedy society.

My AquaFina has an expiration date two years from now. It's just water though, so it would probably still be ok beyond that.

the expiration date is just when it'll start tasting stale. but really water can't expire. the water we drink now is the same water that was here the day the earth was created.

The container 'expires' in that it is not guaranteed to stay sealed. This allows bad things to get into the contents.

Hows about just checking the bottle for that info?

I think that it is meaningless. Water unopened can last for over a decade in drinkable condition.
