Liquid Death earns enthusiastic reviews for crisp, refreshing still and sparkling water, standout “tallboy” cans, and sustainability-minded aluminum packaging, yet opinions split on whether it’s more branding than substance. Reviews highlight delicious flavors like Mango Chainsaw and Severed Lime and the social ease for non-drinkers, while weaknesses include occasional metallic taste, mild carbonation for some, sweetened flavored lines (agave/stevia), and complaints about a recent source change that altered taste.

  • Going into this experience, I wasn’t sure how to feel. I wasn’t sure if it was going to be seltzer, flavored water, or what — but it was just water. Nothing special.

    Feedback

    Possibly trying different flavors instead of plain water.

  • Tastes great and has sustainable packaging, no complaints!

  • I’ve tried liquid death a few times! Compared to other drinks in its category I think this tastes pretty good and not extremely fake tasting. I like that the cans are made from recycled materials!

    Feedback

    I don’t think there is much the brand could do better. Just keep working on the flavors to make it taste more natural.

  • I was skeptical of this water but I have a thing for aesthetic packaging! I was pleasantly surprised by the taste. I am very picky about my water and this lived up to expectations.

    Feedback

    Definitely try it. It’s worth it!

  • Love the packaging, love the branding, love the recyclability of the aluminum cans ... just wish there were more bubbles!

    Feedback

    As a huge fan of sparkling water I appreciate the "sparkle". Missing it just a little too much to be a Superfan of Liquid Death, sadly!

  • High quality water with sustainable packaging, what else can you ask for?!

  • Great taste and very creative packaging. I also love that it comes in aluminum can.

    Feedback

    The flavors and flat/sparkling indicators can be hard to read sometimes, so double check before buying.

  • At the end of the day it's just plain ol' water. I do prefer drinking water out of a can, as I think it stays/gets cooler. Branding is cool and I like that it avoids plastic

  • Was skeptical of the price when I bought one of these at a festival. But I do love their brandings and the cans. Super crisp water, but it is just water at the end of the day.

  • If nothing else, you have to give them credit for finding a new angle on packaged water. Fun packaging, clean taste - nothing exceptional, but worth the occasional splurge.

  • Tastes like regular water, but the packaging is cool and fun to drink out of

  • HOPPING ON THE LIQUID DEATH TRAIN! I love how ubiquitous this brand is and how they've leveraged buzz and branding to effectively stand out as an emerging water brand (a hard space to dive into).

    Feedback

    I was thoroughly quenched after drinking Liquid Death at a music festival- highly recommend!

  • The Guy Fieri of water brands. If that sounds like your thing, you'll probably dig the can.

  • Super interesting concept and love the branding and marketing! Love the sustainability effect and love how it is widely available

    Feedback

    A little odd drinking water out of a can but was refreshing nonetheless!
