I've used Nalgene bottles for years. They're plastic, but you can beat on them pretty good and they seem to stand up. It probably isn't a problem today, but you would want to avoid the BPA stuff. Nothing recently produced, (I think by anyone), would have that anymore though. The one negative, (for some), might be the unscrew cap. If you need a bottle that has a flip top or something, I don't know if they make those. Or rather, they probably do, but that would likely become the weakest link.
For metal, I'd maybe be thinking Yeti. I don't own a Yeti water bottle, but I do have a coffee mug. One day I left it on the front of a rescue truck and forgot it was there. We went on a call and it was missing when we got back. I traced our route and found it... it had clearly bounced down a hill on a street and off a wall. So had some scratches, but was fine. Took me another 5 - 10 minutes to find the top, but that was ok too. So I'm just assuming their water bottles are similarly tough.
