I'm mostly basing it on my experience at restaurants in the 90s. If you asked for water, you got mineral water.
Yeah, but if you ask for tap water, they'll bring you tap water
That's more of a greed issue, though. Though bottled water is very popular in Germany, many people don't bother with it especially if they live in multi-family homes (very unfun to carry bottled water up 3 flights of stairs) and definitely if they don't have a car.
