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.

  • At first when I saw the packaging I was caught off guard. I requested to purchase water from a local sandwich shop and when I went to pick up my order I saw what seemed like an alcoholic drink. I looked more into the company and realized it was intentional for party settings. Packing it in aluminum is also genius as it's easier to recycle.

    Truly nothing. The water tastes refreshing and cold. I just wish I knew about the company sooner as it's clever.

  • Looks cool and gives you something to hold without drinking if you are staying sober and want to _fit in_, but the taste is eh.

  • Hilarious name, fun packaging, good water. Both still and sparkling are nice and refreshing.

  • It's nice, but I don't taste a difference vs. other water. Giving it three stars because of the clever branding.

    It's just water?

  • This is the perfect drink to have at a party or at a bar when everyone else is having libations, but all you want is just water. The packaging and graphics on the can looks like that of beer, so you'll fit right in!

  • favorite flavors are: first place is lime, second place goes to melon, third place goes to mango; and fourth place goes to the dr. pepper flavor. love the selection and the option of small or large cans

  • It's not just a refreshing drink, it's a lifestyle

  • This brand has amazing marketing and the can image really makes you feel like you're fitting in with your drinking buddies while actually just staying hydrated. It's a completely different look and feel that sitting there drinking a bottle of water while everyone else has beers in hand. The taste is as expected, just water but the vibe is spot on.

  • Genius marketing, I now it's just water but you just really have to appreciate the marketing behind it. I've always been into goth stuff and so a metal themed water is just really fun and makes you wanna drink and not feel ashamed for carrying water lol

  • As someone who doesn't drink it's really nice having something that blends in at a party. Also the flavors are great. I'm not typically a fan of sparkling waters but the lime flavor is my top among the sparkling water group. I only wish they came in smaller sizes. The tallboy is nice when you're out, but a smaller can would be great for at home consumption.

  • Simple - the water in a can is the only way to go if you're purchasing water. The neutral and fresh flavor is better than plastic bottles and you can feel better not drinking microplastics. The sparking flavors are tasty - somewhat fake tasting, but that is what you're buying.

  • This is the perfect blend between a refreshing water and a party beverage! I can enjoy my alcohol free life without feeling left out! Shoutout to this amazing brand for bridging the gap for sober people in festive environments.

  • These teas are a product after my dark heart. Not to mention delicious the raspberry is soo much better than Lipton or Brisk. The little touches on the can leave you saying niiiicccee lol. I'm always looking for these now.

  • Liquid death is such a cool way to have water! Something about drinking water out of a can that makes it taste better! Love the look and design of a can, almost looks like an energy drink (fooled me the first time I saw it). Overall great tasting water!

  • Liquid death does not seem to get the hype it deserves outside of concert venues! First off, the super cool and sustainable packaging is awesome. Then, you add in their additional beverage line beyond just plain water—the teas are all so smooth and not overly sweet. I love the rest in peach. The sparkling waters have the natural flavor and do not taste fake at all; without being overly carbonated.

  • A neat drink to have around especially for non drinkers that don’t want to be asked 10000s time why aren’t you drinking xyz

  • I have tried no just the water but also other flavors. The name is so great as I love the play on words that go with the drink. It's a brand that I like as it is not only creative but quenches my first. They're not that sweet for the flavored drinks too me. You can always found deals on this brand too.
