If you assume the pH of water to be 7, and the average pH of beer to be 4.25, then:
10^-4.25/10^-7 ~= 562
So beer would be 562 times more acidic.
But (due to CO2) the typical pH of RO of distilled water is closer to 5.8 or 5.9.
10^-4.25/10^-5.9 ~= 45
Beer is only about 45 times more acidic than RO or distilled water.
If however your water is pH 8, then:
10^-4.25/10^-8 ~= 5,623
For this case beer is 5,623 times more acidic.
This knowledge plus about $3.50 will get you a nice coffee at Starbucks.
