I knew a guy back in the days who always ordered "Hahnenwasser" as he called it and it was free. Maybe this changed or it's regional. I know the cheapest drink has to be without alcohol and I'm pretty sure water is never more expensive than soda

Hahnenwasser literally means tap water. The tap is called "Hahn".

I know, it's just that most other people call it Leitungswasser

That's a north/south difference in German. Leitungswasser in the Saupreisn areas, Hahnenwasser in the Bergjuden/Schluchtenscheißer regions.
