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.

  • LOVE THE BRANDING!! I appreciate how their goal is to get the youth to drink more water!!

  • O marketing me pegou e fiquei muito curiosa para experimentar, mas é só água nada demais, a lata é bem bonita parece que vc tá tomando uma bebida alcoólica acho que é um pouco da proposta da marca, mas o preço não compensa.

  • I found this sparkling water BEYOND overrated. It seems to be a gamer drink and liked by those who have stopped drinking. I consider myself a sparkling water aficionado and this missing the mark. The cans are to big in my opinion and the price too high. Flavor wise, I found the lime somewhat synthetic tasting.

  • This has the best water, I swear! I drink a lot of different water companies but I prefer this. Its offered in lots of stores and is always seem to be front and center. What I really love is that its in an aluminum can, so totally recyclable!

  • It wasn't bad. It wasn't great. It was ok. Will I be seeking these drinks out, no. Will I buy them on sale, yes

  • Not bad!

  • I keep these cans in my car, as leaving plastic bottles in a car on a hot day is truly not how I enjoy hydrating. They’re relatively inexpensive, lightweight, and… recyclable! That’s my favorite part. Always trying to move away from plastic and toward metals, glass, and paper. I will say that the brand recently has released merchandise that doesn’t seem to suit their goals/identity. I’ve seen plastic bottles for sale (c’mon… plastic tiki mug?), polyester clothing items & dog toys, faux leathers, foams… the list goes on. It’s disappointing. I had previously believed the brand’s mission was to ditch plastic, but here we are.

  • Silly and lovable marketing. So silly you don't know what the product is until you read the label though. (Water). Cute cans but wouldn't buy myself.

  • Living in an area that bans single plastic water bottles all “bottled” water comes in cans. It’s a way of life here and this is my go-to grab as it doesn’t have a weird taste or smell. Refreshing and no aftertaste!

  • Started ordering cases when they first came on the scene. Great for just drinking and mixing! So glad I can get it in a store now. Especially when I am on thee road and didn't come prepared.

  • Liquid death stands out to me in the over saturated sparkling water market. It's very carbonated and crisp which I love. It taste best when served very cold. I love the product and the can packaging.

  • The Grim Leafer is my favorite tea. It's not crazy sweet and it's super refreshing. Plus their branding is amazing and I dig the fact that they're conscious about the environment as well.

  • Good product, turned off by package branding.

  • So it's unremarkable water in a can. Water should not be in cans, plastic bottles or any other receptacle that leads to more waste. Carry your own reusable bottle and stop this proliferation of garbage.

  • I appreciate the environmentally conscious alternative to the usual plastic water bottles and that the marketing offers a refreshing and concealed alternative for those who want to blend into a crowd full of people drinking beer. Still, it's overpriced.

  • I've had all of their waters. They're a local brand and I want to support them. The packaging and branding is stellar. It's consistent no matter where you buy Liquid Death from. My biggest issue is the sparkling water. It's flat in less than 5 minutes. The can is massive, and I don't want to have to shotgun sparkling water to have it stay fizzy while I'm drinking it. Aside from that, it's simple - water in a can instead of a plastic bottle and it tastes great.

  • Tastes great and the can is very eye-catching!

  • I dont know if its worth it, its expensive & i dont feel like there is something special about it except for the design.

  • Great tasting beverages. Amazing alternative to alcoholic beverages and doesn’t taste too seeet or bland!

  • Overrated water. I had a bad experience with the Arnold Palmer in which there was jelly like gunk floating around!
