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.

  • The gold and green can are pretty good. I like this because seltzer usually dries out my mouth this does not…don’t buy white can.

  • The water had a very Strange consistency. Almost like very heavy & dense. It never got cold enough & kind of a salty taste.

  • Alright, so I was super pumped about this water brand—seriously, the branding caught my eye right away, and I'm all about fighting the single-use plastic problem. But...honestly, I was let down. The water had this weird metallic taste that I just couldn’t shake off. And on top of that, the price? Kinda steep. As much as I wanted to be on board with this, I can’t really recommend it.

  • I hate water, but put it in a can and im all over it!!

  • The most amazing flavor is the severed lime. LOVE love.

  • Liquid death delivers exactly what it promises - water in a can. I do think there's a very slight metallic taste which you don't get in tap or bottled water, but it's not the worst thing. If metal packaging is better than plastic, than I suppose this is a better, environmental, option to bottled water.

  • I like the branding but at the end of the day it’s just really expensive filtered water. Would like it more if it came in glass bottles with a top so you could save it for later vs having to hold the entire time at a show.

  • It's sparkling water. But, in a can. The design is cool, but the water is still just water. Though, I do appreciate the harshness of the bubbles - much stronger than La Croix, but not as strong as Polar (my preferred sparkling water brand). The flavored sparkling waters are fine. I find the taste a bit off-putting/diluted, so I prefer the regular. Where Liquid Death does shine though is the iced teas. Those are my favorite. Not too sweet but very satisfying. I admittedly buy them every time I come across them in the grocery store nowadays.

  • Water without the plastic bottle. Much more eco-friendly.

  • So clean tasting. Yum!!!! It is better than any bottled water. But it is super pricey. So that keeps me from buying it.

  • I gotta love the double-takes I get when I'm hanging with friends with a tall boy can and they think its a beer. LOL

  • I love this water! It stays extra cold and crisp in the aluminum can.

  • Love my man STIX and the brand is killing it. Water Liquid Death over Liquid Courage any day.

  • perfect bubbles, amazing packaging, feels like a treat to drink these when you want something with flavor but no calories. the mango chainsaw is my fav!

  • Drinking water from a cold can turns water drinking into an experience! I love it!

  • Liquid death is more than great-tasting water and flavored beverages. The brand, hell, even the can, is empowering. These guys changed the game...keep it going

  • The packing intrigued me and the taste kept me coming back! I'm not a big bottled water fan so the canned water, that wasn't sparkling, peaked my interest. This water is super refreshing and clean. I also love that the cans or made from recycled materials and the process continues after you finish! I'd have to say my favorite would be the mango chainsaw - the mango flavor isn't overwhelming or watered down. Great when you want something more with your water!
