If i put some other beverage like gatorade, tea, or beer is this bladder, will the water i put in it later taste like the other drink?

No if you rinse it well. To get rid of odors and tastes you can put salt (rough salt) and shake very energetically the bladder half full. It doesn't solve the issue of taste coming from the tube but definitely clean the bladder

Be sure to rinse it out really well as soon as you can. The next batch of water you put in it may carry some flavor, but it should not last.

depends how long you leave it in there. But the plastic does take on other flavors over time.
