Things that come to mind, sulfer or clay. But, that doesn't mean that's what it is either. Have your water tested. You might be driving a new well. I grew up in Indiana and for most of my life, had shallow wells up to 25', the last shallow. The first was 1.5" at 15' including the well point, but we had problems with that well, including water quality. We found out that there were three shallow water veins in the area that we lived, and the first vein was poorer water quality. We drove a 2" down 20' and used it about a decade, but the well point went bed, so we pulled it and ran another 2" down 25' and had much better quality water. The place that I have now is a deep well down about 60', and one thing is for sure, water quality isn't an issue, although we have a water softener for everything but one fawcet that I installed off of the well ahead of the softner for dinking and cooking, and it has a filter that never seems to go bad. I change it periodically, but never seems to go bad.
I do have cousins that live south in Bremen by the lake where there is lots of clay, and to me, their shallow well water is the worst with incredible iron content. Hasn't affected them, but is the worst.
