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.

  • This is water in a can. It tasted like a can. Sorry. My husband and I have tried it a few times as it has been at events. He even grabs it when he wanted to look manly with his guy friends hanging out. But doesn’t any more. Better than boxed water. Not better than plastic bottles as this has a plastic lining

  • Not sure how you can be addicted to water, but I am. Maybe it’s the cool packaging, I don’t know. I really like this item.

  • How I first tried LD was by sheer luck. The eye-catching, compelling branding led my husband to assume this was a craft beer at a festival we were attending. Like most humans, we 100% needed hydration more than alcohol, so imagine my delight and joy when I tasted cool, pure, refreshing water upon my first sip. Kudos to Liquid Death for creatively capturing two new fans with the one-two punch of a clever design hook followed by a quality product!

  • Solid liked better when alpine sourced.

  • I love what this company stands for with their confidence and with their means to make a change. The marketing is off the hook. I have a ton of their clothes, too.

  • While this is just water in a can, it's refreshing to know I am not drinking plastic particles.

  • Liquid Death is just a solid product. My kids love all the flavours as do I (severed lime the tops). It seems just to do what it says it will, not bad for you, makes you smile. The marketing makes me laugh. And I don't think it's owned by a bunch of money-grubbing bozos.

  • Amazing backstory with this product. I was skeptical about drinking water from a can but it tastes amazing, while leaving me feeling hydrated, energetic, and overall good

  • I wanted to give another of this brand of flavored water seltzer a chance because I love La Croix so I was hoping this would be fun. I didn't love the flavor to water mix as much as I desired to do so I also wanted more innovative/fun flavors but the concept of it and the bottles are very cute so the branding works wonders I just didn't enjoy the taste experience.

  • Fun water experience

  • So refreshing and actually delivers an authentic fruit taste! Also love the branding.

  • Didn't know they had caffeinated teas! Tried it at Expo West and really loved the Green Tea one

  • The only downside of this brand is the amount of questions I get asked about what I am drinking because the packaging is so unique and cool. The Armless Palmer is the best canned iced tea lemonade on the market. There’s something about drinking a lemonade/tea from a water brand that makes it feel healthier too

  • Tastes like average water, enter than plastic in a can though, and strong branding

  • love the bubbly waters and the agave peach tea!

  • I first saw this product at a music festival. It tastes fine but that packaging leaves a bit to be desired. It would be more functional if they used a recycled packaging instead of aluminum.

  • Really cool alternative to a tall-boy at social events. For just regular drinking though, it's a bit expensive. ESPECIALLY if you get the flat water (not sparkling). It's great that there are natural flavors, minerals, and vitamins. It makes it feel like you're drinking a tasty health tonic, and it's just water! I wish there was less sugar, though. I love the Arnold-Palmer flavor the most.

  • So refreshing
