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.

  • Very cool branding but in the end it’s just canned water. Good tasting water though!

  • The armless palmer is a delicious drink that is not too sweet and still refreshing.

  • I just don’t really get the brand around water that looks like beer and isn’t? Doesn’t take very different and I’m not a huge fan of water in a can.

  • Overrated and the sparkling water is always close to flat when you first open it. Wouldn’t waste my time

  • This water was really refreshing. I bought the black can and the packaging was really interesting. I have since purchased a few more cans. The only downside is that they’re a bit pricey and I usually buy them individually.

  • super tasty sparkling water flavors and tea flavors i like that all of their stuff is recyclable

  • Somehow water just tastes better out of an LD can. Their carbonated flavors are lovely and refreshing, but I will always be a still-water girl. Branding is unparalleled.

  • I love this brand. I have a complicated relationship with alcohol consumption, so this is a really nice substitute for booze during social events when I want to have something in my hand to feel part of the group, but also have some flavor and low calorie. I feel a bit badass when drinking it, too, which I realize is dumb but I think the branding and labeling do the trick.

  • Is there a cooler looking can you could be seen with? There really isn't. I would drink this product even if I didn't like it because it is just so fun to look at.

  • I've only tried it twice, but man, the flavor of this was totally unexpected and refreshing!

  • Love their regular (flat) water and brand—I feel so cool drinking Liquid Death. Their sparkling water series contains fake sugars that I DETEST (overly fake sweet, cloying soda like taste).

  • Good for the company on the cool branding. The product is okay to me. I prefer other sparkling water brands like topo chico.

  • And I’m not sure why, but the water definitely taste better. Perhaps it’s just very good marketing but I definitely enjoy it.

  • Love the idea, but the plain water takes on a metallic taste from the packaging (duh). The flavoured options are better

  • Liquid Death Mountain Water has made a splash in the bottled water market with its unconventional branding. Packaged in tallboy cans that resemble beer, it certainly stands out on the shelves. The water itself is sourced from the Austrian Alps, and many consumers praise its crisp, clean taste that's devoid of any aftertaste, often associated with bottled water. The brand also carries an environmental ethos, as the aluminum cans are more sustainable and have a higher recycling rate compared to plastic bottles. Additionally, Liquid Death has a flair for marketing with its edgy and humorous branding, which has garnered a cult following. Tthe price point is relatively high compared to other bottled waters, which can be a deterrent for those looking for a basic hydration solution without the added flair. That said, Liquid Death Mountain Water offers high-quality water in eco-friendlier packaging, but with branding and a price that might not cater to everyone's tastes or budgets. It's perfect for those seeking a touch of rebelliousness in their hydration routine.

  • Cool brand with incredible packaging! I love the taste the metal can gives the water, but I could see how others could be potentially turned off by it. However, if you want to look a bit cooler with guzzling some water and ditch the plastic, this brand would be my go to!

  • I used to love Liquid Death. I still love their marketing and mission. However, every single flavored water that they've done has tasted awful.

  • It’s water! It’s nice that it’s allowing people to feel more comfortable being sober at bars. I would recommend their flavor options (like the peach tea one), they are well flavored but not too sweet.
