  • Crisp, refreshing water taste
  • Edgy, conversation-starting packaging

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.

  • Murder your thirst is an understatement. It’s been amazing enjoying the eco friendly cans. They stay cooler longer, and make a great companion in yoga classes. I was worried the cans would impart an aluminum taste, but fear not, refreshing clean water is at your disposal as soon as you pop the top.

  • I tried these for the first time in a Snackmagic order I placed and was hooked. The new marketing campaign is spot on and hilarious. As a sparkling water nut, I will grab Liquid Death when I see it. The can design - clever.

  • Unremarkable product that doesn't really do anything innovative. The flavors aren't exceptional in any way, in fact I think they may be some of my least favorite drinks. I don't get the hype!

  • Great option for water. I like it much better than plastic bottles or cardboard boxes. I think I just need to get used to having something not carbonated or flavored coming out of a can.

    I wish they had smaller sized cans available. I like my water extra cold so having smaller cans would help.

  • Amazing seltzer without the added junk. I also love the founders mission and backstory.

  • I really enjoy luiquid death, the first time I saw a can I thought it was a beer and I had to try it because the name was the best! The water was clean tasting mountain water, I enjoyed having a aluminum can to reycle after drinking the water. I really enjoy the obscure things that are written on the can, it really fits my personality. Also I have tried the Grim Lefer tea they carry as well it was also a nice bodied tea that was also hydrating.

    Well when I was showing my co worker the drink we all laughed when we read the can, it was enjoyable and I passed a case around to them and they also enjoyed the water.

  • Liquid death is good! Liquid death mango chainsaw is better! This flavored water does mango right.

  • Overpriced but still good water. Has nice flavor and honestly does taste better out of a can. Not sure if the “specialness” of it is worth the price point though.

  • I love drinking liquid death. For some reason it makes drinking water feel a whole lot cooler.

  • Personally, I don’t love drinking out of a can for water. I do appreciate the lack of plastic and think their creativity and branding is so strong that I will purchase their high quality water sometimes, but it’s just not my preference.

  • Death is exactly how I felt after drinking this water. Maybe I'm spoiled with great tap water where I live, but this water tasted terrible. It was metallic tasting and overall just a no from me. I do like that it comes in a recycable can though!

  • Liquid Death is a very smooth water drink. It quenches your thirst very quickly. I like it in the aluminum can instead of a glass bottle. In the can it’s easier to consume.

  • Full disclosure, I am not a sparkling water fan, but these are not too bad as they have a bit more than a suggestion of a hint of flavor.

  • Water tasted good. This great when you don't feel like having an alcoholic drink as it is disguised as such. Although, I am not sure what the meaning of Death would be since it's water.

  • sparkling water isn't great already, but this is the worst sparkling water

    Received a free product from Liquid Death
  • Who knew water needed a rebrand. I love the cans so much better than plastic bottles. With the ranges of flavors now growing i look forward to trying them all.

  • Liquid Death makes my favorite sparkling water. Perfect amount of effervescence, great taste, feels hydrating.

  • Excellent branding, even better crisper water. I also like when i dot feel like drinking at a show, and it looks like i have a beer so people don't ask me why i am not drinking.
