Liquid Death earns polarizing reviews: many praise its crisp still and sparkling waters, edgy tallboy cans that help non-drinkers blend in at concerts, and recyclable aluminum packaging; others call it “just water,” note metallic or flat tastes, and dislike sweetened flavors and the recent source change to Virginia. Fans highlight flavors like Mango Chainsaw, Severed Lime, Berry It Alive, and teas (Armless Palmer/Dead Billionaire), while critics cite bitter stevia aftertaste, limited carbonation, non‑resealable cans, and inconsistent flavor quality.

  • Liquid Death makes many varieties and a lot of them are great. Sweet Reaper is a sweet tea with agave and vitamins. The principle is excellent, but I get a bitter aftertaste and wonder of it’s the type of stevia used.

  • This is a review of Liquid Death's Green Guillotine Green Tea. I love iced green tea and drink it daily, so I was excited to try this product. It is sweetened with agave nectar and stevia, and has only 20 calories. Although the sweetener was light, I found the flavor to have an aftertaste that I did not love. I think I would prefer it to be unsweetened. If in a pinch, I would drink this, but it would not be my first choice.

  • As someone who loves sparkling water the fact that there was a “cola” flavored sparkling water was an interesting concept. Just to be clear this isn’t “soda”, it’s a sparkling water that has the essence of cola. It’s nice enough but the price is expensive. Glad I tried it but not sure I would repurchase.

  • This drink is a fun way to get water. The name and design definitely spark interest and make me feel like I am drinking something rebellious. While it is a little pricier, I think it is worth it for the flavor variety and the fact that the cans are recyclable. I also love the fun names

  • I went to a concert recently and needed water. My friend bought me a can of Liquid Death. At first, I refused it thinking it was alcoholic but once I read the can, I saw it was mountain water from the Alps. It was a delicious, refreshing water, even at room temperature. I absolutely love the name and the tagline, "Murder Your Thirst." It's cute packaging and a very good brand of water. The day after the concert, I went to the grocery store and picked up more for my house.

  • I know it’s corny to care about drinking water, but Liquid Death is legitimately good and hilariously entertaining. The goofy product names, the can designs, the albums, and the merch are all top tier. I saw the truck in Columbus and laughed out loud.

  • I didn’t understand the hype around Liquid Death, but then I tried their sparkling water, and I’m hopping on the bandwagon. For some reason, their water tastes so good, and it just makes hydration so much more fun. Definitely would recommend this if you don’t want to drink but still want to hold a can. Yes, their prices are more expensive than regular water but I think their products are cool.

  • I have the LD mini fridge in my office so I guess you could say I’m a pretty big fan.. The sparkling water is great because the bubbles are far more mild than a lot of other brands. The water is uniquely crispy and bubbly but still makes for a really smooth sipping experience. All the flavored sparkling waters (mango, berry, lime) use a little bit of real sugar which keeps the sugar and calories low but the flavors bold. Also, the still mountain water variety is crisp and tastes great without any funky flavors or mineral aftertaste like tap and cheaper bottled water tends to have. 10/10 across the board tbh.

    Make more flavors!

  • I love water in containers that won't contribute to plastic in the environment OR my body. Plastic is gross. This is the opposite. It's refreshing, with light carbonation that reminded me of the sparkling water I would get in Paris. They have taps in restaurants that dispense a crisp glass of water with light carbonation whenever you might want one. No bottle needed. I can take Liquid Death along with me anytime I want with no bottle needed as well. I don't purchase drinks very often because I don't think the value is worth what a lot of companies charge. This is worth it and they are often on sale where I shop. I've tried the plain carbonated and mango. Both are good.

  • Let's cut to the chase. I've tried both their still and sparkling varieties, and I am not impressed. This is water. Nothing more, nothing less. Great marketing and fun packaging aside, it's not tastier or better for you than other bottled or canned waters. Maybe their flavored versions are amazing, but if you're going for good, old-fashioned artesian water, I can't see a reason to purchase this overpriced product other than the cachet of being seen drinking from a can labeled "Liquid Death."

  • Liquid Death Lime is my favorite drink of all time. I can’t get enough. I love their mission and their humor. They ROCK all around!!!!

  • I literally survived off of Liquid Death at Bonnaroo 2023. They had the most amazing "country club" pop up as well. I really don't normally turn to packaged water but Liquid Death tastes amazing and I feel refreshed after drinking it. The packaging is incredible too - I didn't feel awkward drinking water the entire festival while others were drinking alcoholic beverages.

  • I tried the Armless Palmer and thought it had good effervescence and flavor. Considering it’s not a full-on Arnold Palmer, and rather a low-calorie seltzer, I think they did (and are doing) a great job with their products and they seem high quality to me. I also love the fun packaging and semi-wildness of their brand. Original and playful. I also love how there are no plastic labels on their cans, which makes for easier recycling.

  • I’m obsessed with the branding of course! But also all of these drinks are delicious. I make sure to get my hands on every new one that comes out and it’s honestly one of the only packaged drinks I ever purchase. Love!

  • I would give this 5 stars, but there is something a little off about the taste. I'm not really a huge fan of sparkling water. It messes up the taste in my opinion. However, if you get the flavored Liquid Death, I think you'll be quite satisfied. You wouldn't expect it to taste that great, but it is a nice alternative to soda, and it's just water for the most part. I tried the lime flavor, and there were only 4 grams of sugar. While it has an after taste of sparkling water, it wasn't that bad. You taste the flavor right away.

  • My teens are obsessed with liquid death. I like to get it for them if we are going to a social gathering, because then they have a special drink also. I love the packaging of it also!!!!

  • This stuff is so refreshing! It tastes like fresh mountain water and reminds me of home. My husband introduced me to it and not only are all the cans great, but the brand itself is amazing. Check our their merch too!

  • Summers in NY can be brutal. I love this concept of the can instead of plastic, keeping the water cool as long as possible. Also, it doesn't have an odd taste which can happen sometimes with cans.

  • I first saw this water on a post and immediately had to try it because I loveeee water and I am not disappointed. Super fresh and stays cold. Had to go big with an entire case after tasting a single can!

  • At the end of the day this is just a can of water, but I do appreciate that ability to hold a tall boy and not have to deal with the "why aren't you drinking conversation"
