Brief Answer:
Yes it does hurt Acid Reflux or GERD.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to HCM: Please note that most of not all carbonated drinks will worsen you acid reflux symptoms. Also note that spicy foods do the same, also avoid drinking or having large meals right before bed as this further aggravates acid reflux symptoms. I hope this helps, good luck.
