Those buckets would have the same plastic-taste issues as any other plastic containers and they're certainly less practical than aqua-tainers (though they might cost less). Glass breaks, and stainless steel sounds horrendously expensive. Best bet is probably plastic and then use a carbon filter to remove any plastic residue if you can.
