The tap water in Canberra, Australia is the tastiest I've tried out of the ~20-50 municipalities I've sampled in Australia, Western and Southern Europe, the US, China, Taiwan and Vietnam.

It tasted better in Canberra before the 2013 bushfire, back when it was filtered through pine needles, before they removed all the pine farms

The US has pretty good tap water in most places. Of course there are outliers we are talking about a giant country.
While you are right to trust most tap water in Europe we also have a lot of outliers. Old plumbing being probably the biggest problem. But also the taste can be atrocious. The worst tasting tap water I ever needed to drink was in Barcelona.

Oddly specific when of the 10 countries judged to have the equal best tap water quality, 4 are European islands (UK, Ireland, Iceland, Malta) and many Continental European countries score behind the US:
