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.

  • love that this helps move away from single use plastic! also their products taste great! this is a staple in our home!

    Feedback

    some of the teas could be more flavorful, but overall they are a good option!

  • My husband and I are addicted to this water. The best way I can explain it is this water is the coldest and most fresh tasting water ever. Because the Kanas aluminum, it really gets so cold and because it’s water, I don’t know how to describe the taste, but if you can imagine like the cleanest most flavorless water that’s how this taste.

    I wish the price point was more accessible

  • I actually hate the taste and I’ve tried it so manny times. I really want to love it

  • I was skeptical at first, but I've enjoyed all the flavors. The size of the can is the perfect companion for when you want to feel like you're having a beer, but you actually don't want to drink one. A sneaky way to stay hydrated.

  • One of the standout features of Liquid Death is its packaging. The brand's water is packaged in tall, slim cans that resemble energy drink cans. This unique packaging is eye-catching and appeals to a younger, edgier demographic. The cans are also made from recyclable materials, which is a plus for environmentally-conscious consumers. In terms of taste, Liquid Death's water is described as being crisp and refreshing. The water is sourced from natural springs in the Austrian Alps, which adds to its appeal for those who prefer spring water over purified tap water. Another unique aspect of Liquid Death is its marketing. The brand's marketing campaigns are edgy and irreverent, with slogans like "Murder your thirst" and "Death to plastic." This unconventional marketing approach has helped the brand gain a loyal following among younger consumers who appreciate the brand's rebellious attitude. Liquid Death is also committed to sustainability. In addition to using recyclable packaging, the brand donates a portion of its profits to environmental non-profit organizations. This is a significant factor for many consumers who prioritize sustainability when making purchasing decisions.

    In terms of pricing, Liquid Death's water is priced slightly higher than traditional bottled water. However, given the brand's unique packaging, premium sourcing, and commitment to sustainability, the higher price point is justified.

  • As water goes it stands up against the best canned waters but what makes it so special is its attitude and its single minded approach to disrupting a very boring market. Just tried it this week so i guess they are looking to enter the UK market. Will be interested to see how it goes down..

    Feedback

    cans are great sustainably but they do give a little tinny taste to the water.

  • Genuinely shocked to say that Liquid Death in fact meets the hype. I thought most waters were created equal, but Liquid Death is in a league of its own. The carbonation level is perfect. The new flavored cans are great too!

  • Love the packaging for especially since it is water. We tried the mango chainsaw and the flavoring is quite nice. We used it as a mixer with and added some popping mango bubbles and it was fantastic. We found some at our local Whole Foods market and we gave it a try and enjoyed immensely. Would highly recommend.

  • Outstanding Branding My non-alcoholic option

    Feedback

    This is everything that can be great: Flavor, design, quality It's not a regular water it's an experience :)

  • Liquid death tastes like other sparkling waters and is something I would reach for again. However, it is on the pricier end for sparkling water. I gave this one extra point because it is a great alternative to drinking at social functions while still looking like you are having an alcoholic beverage, which can be useful in many situations.

  • It's just water. I'm not a fan of sparkling water or any flavored water so I'm not judging them on that. I think the best thing about them is that at events like concerts, they;re starting to be sold more, so I blend into the drinking crowd, which sort of feels nice.

  • Feedback

    The water is tasty, especially the sparkling. Great packaging, which I think is the best aspect!

  • Love having a canned water option ( this was the first i believe ). Stays cold, looks unassuming if you drink this at a bar and just love their crazy marketing

    Works for Liquid Death
  • Definitely not something I would drink again just not for me. Gave me a stomach ache

  • At first didnt like their brand because I am a follower of Jesus but then I tasted the Mango flavor and I just ignore the fact that there is a death representation on the front. very good product

    Feedback

    can you Make a bottle without a skull

  • Don’t get it. I have mistaken it for a beer about 10 times now. The name is probably the most confusing part.

    Feedback

    Nothing particular against it, probably better for the environment than plastic bottles? But not better for the environment than filling up your own bottle.

  • I have tried the still water, sparkling water, and sparkling lime and I love all 3!

  • this brand is very cool. i like that you can carry this around at a party or show and it looks like beer. good for people who want to stay sober but still want to have something in their hand. also the carbonation doesn't BURN my throat (lol) like some waters do. feels high quality to me and the branding is top notch.

  • Refreshing when ice cold. I'm a huge critic of water brands as I'm one of those people who think each brand tastes different. I like it but it's not my favorite. I do like that this is in a can. I've tried to move away from plastic as much as possible as a consumer. It's a nice touch and is good branding strategy.

  • Needed water at a sporting event and this is all they had so i was excited to try it and see what the hype is about. Oh boy was I disappointed, the water tasted horrible! Also everyone knows this is water so it defeats the purpose of drinking water look cool definitely avoid.
