Liquid Death earns enthusiastic reviews for crisp, refreshing still and sparkling water, standout “tallboy” cans, and sustainability-minded aluminum packaging, yet opinions split on whether it’s more branding than substance. Reviews highlight delicious flavors like Mango Chainsaw and Severed Lime and the social ease for non-drinkers, while weaknesses include occasional metallic taste, mild carbonation for some, sweetened flavored lines (agave/stevia), and complaints about a recent source change that altered taste.

  • Good water in sustainable packaging. I knocked a star off because I think their flavorings could use work. I like the still and plain sparkling (the carbonation level is just right for me), the lime is okay (I’d probably go with Topo Chico Lime instead), and I wouldn’t buy the mango again.

    If they can find a better way to flavor the waters so it doesn’t come off tasting as fake (looking at you, mango), then I would give their flavored ones another shot.

  • It is no different than any other water; if anything, it has a metallic aftertaste that wasn't suitable for my tastebuds.

  • I am so-so on Liquid Death. It's much better than soda but not the best seltzer. The marketing, though--can't be beat. I keep buying cases, so I guess it's working. I'd recommend trying it out.

  • There is nothing better than an ice old can of water on a hot day. I love the design, for one, but the water is so good. No after taste whatsoever, just crisp, cool water. It's easily one of my favorite brands of water.

    Try it ice cold. It tastes so amazing.

  • 10/10 taste and 10/10 packaging design! Love the cans and appreciate how confident it makes me feel when I'm not drinking alcohol, but don't want to stand out in the crowd. The Liquid Death marketing team is unmatched.

    Keep doing what you're doing.

  • It may seem frivolous, but this water rocks. At parties and events I love to have a drink in my hand, but don't want it to be alcohol always. I love the bubbly water the most and their flavored ones are good to.

  • I never understood why people would buy this, but as a non drinker at social events it does make you feel like you at least have a can of beer /something to hold

  • I love this brand! The packaging is genius, I love when I go to festivals or bars and they have this option for water. It tastes good too.

  • It’s water, what can I say. But it’s somehow more fun. Love the branding and everything they do. I had the sparkling water version of this and I’d get it again.

  • Love the water, the sparkling water, and the packaging since it is metal it is more likely to be recycled than plastic. Also you look bad*ss while drinking it.

  • I love the branding a lot. The first time I saw this was at a music festival and it was super humorous to us that it looks like an IPA or some other alcoholic beverage but is really just water. (and obviously funny that it's the opposite of death). Also love that it's a can instead of a plastic bottle!

  • I love everything about this brand. Their mission of being sustainable and getting rid of plastic bottles is amazing. The water tastes delicious. Also a good alternative for a sober night because people assume it's a drink because of the logo and the can. It is very pricey for some cans of water. So I only get it when I'm really in the mood for them.

    I think the price is a bit steep, I wish they had some coupons occasionally.

  • Coolest can of water. Thought it was beer, it’s just water. Sold by the Super Bowl ad.

    When are ya launching in London!

  • The sparkling lime flavor is great highly recommended! The still is good too just takes getting used to drinking out of a can.

    Feedback

    Love the sparkling lime water and would love to see more flavors!

  • I'm a sucker for cool packaging and this definitely got me. It's literally just water, nothing incredibly special about it, other than it comes in a wicked cool can. Maybe the aluminum can keeps it extra cold? Still, I'd buy it again.

  • Ok, I get that it's just water in a can BUT liquid death comes in an aluminum can (always a plus because it can be recycled easily) and the seltzer flavors are on point. Love that it comes in a larger size than a traditional seltzer, too!

  • I love having these as an alternative to booze. I've seen them showing up at concerts, comedy shows, friends parties. I do wish the sparkling water had a bit more sparkle to it and I wish they came in smaller sizes too.
