I found this link:
http://www.health.state.mn.us/divs/eh/water/factsheet/com/bottledwater.html
and although it is from Minnesota's department of health, the FAQ is pretty universal.
..in a nutshell, according to this FAQ, bottled water if it's unopened, has an indefinite shelf life.

Which brings up a question; How do they insure that bottled water is bacteria free, because like any other "canned" product it would begin to spoil as the bacteria multiplied. I've seen bottled water that was several months or even a year old that was still clear, though I would not condescend to drink it. I'll take my chances at the hydrant instead. I've never noticed whether it was date stamped or not, cause I'm just not into bottled water unless traveling.
