I used to drink Bragg's for my GERD but that stuff tastes like battery acid to me (yes, I have tasted battery acid).  I much prefer Whitehouse brand ACV for medicinal purposes.  It is made with a little of the natural apple sweetness so it doesn't have that God-awful bitter note at the end that Bragg's did.  I don't drink ACV straight; I dilute a couple of teaspoons in 8 ounces of room temprature water with a packet of Truvia (stevia).  Goes down a lot smoother.
