  • Crisp, refreshing water taste

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.

  • something about this is so great - a lot of water in a can - but sparkling version goes flat so fast

  • Love the mission. And the taste of anything in a can is somehow better. Super refreshing and love not contributing to PLASTIC WASTE! I've never tried any of the flavors or sparkling versions - only the regular water and I love it! I actually buy this to have as backup water in Florida in case of Hurricane.

  • Tastes like water, not much else to say. Kind of strange to drink the non-sparkling water out of a can. One downside of the can is that you can’t re-close it. Upside is that I’m not tossing another single-use plastic.

  • Great water, I love that feeling of drinking something fun due to the branding.

  • Cold water in an aluminum can just tastes extra refreshing. I really enjoy the aesthetic of the brand as well. It’s more expensive than other water brands, so I tend to save them for the times when it’s extra hot and I’m super parched. It’s like a special treat.

  • I love the idea of this brand. Makes “drinking” more inclusive while also being more eco friendly and refreshing.

  • It’s another fancy water? Don’t understand the hype beyond the fact that’s it’s a cool can and design.

  • Masterclass in marketing! Plus we love recyclable materials. But at the end of the day, it is just portable water and does not quench me more or less than other brands.

  • I love that you can pick up liquid death at a concert and you don't get the "why aren't you drinking" stares!

  • After drinking this I felt so hydrated and with so much energy is was crazy🔥

  • Screams “confused.” It’s cringe. My boyfriend likes it. But allegedly it has great electrolyte content. So that’s good.

  • The name....I believe words are spells...why would I want liquid death? The idea may seem cool for a gift or for someone who doesn't think like me or has dark humor. But, Nah. I won't bother again.

  • I love how the packaging looks and how refreshing the water actually is.

  • The water tastes great and I love that it is fun to drink when at a party even when i am DD.

    I wish there was a larger size.

  • I remember trying this water from a functional wellness clinic that carried their products. I do not remember being too impressed, or the water being memorable. I am a lover of water, so I do have some favorites, but this is not particularly one of mine!

    Feedback

    I personally did not like the taste. I did not dislike it necessarily, just did not like it.

  • I’m not generally one for sparkling water but this is my exception. The carbonation is not as static-tasting as others. The lime flavored one is also pretty tasty.

    Feedback

    Venturing out into more flavors I think would be awesome, but I do love the ones currently out.
