Reviews mention

  • Crisp, refreshing water
  • Recyclable aluminum packaging
  • Bold, distinctive branding
  • Satisfying sparkling carbonation
  • Non‑resealable tall cans
  • Occasional metallic aftertaste
  • Inconsistent flavored sweetness
  • Carbonation sometimes too gentle

Liquid Death earns strong reviews for crisp, refreshing still and sparkling water and edgy cans that make sober socializing feel seamless, though many note it’s “just water” with basic or inconsistent flavors and occasional metallic notes. Reviews say the brand is good for sustainability-minded buyers thanks to recyclable aluminum and standout branding, but weaknesses include sweetness in some flavored and tea lines, less punchy carbonation for some, and a non‑resealable can that’s inconvenient.

  • I tried Liquid Death at a few festivals this summer and while the taste was nice and the packaging is fun it doesn't really justify the price tag.

  • I honestly do not understand the hype over these. It doesn't taste bad but it is somewhat strange drinking water out of a can, like my brain is just expecting something different.

  • As much as I aesthetically love this brand.. it really is just canned water.. I only buy it for my fiance when it's on special but doesn't taste any different. The cans are also so large that the water normally gets warm before I finish it..

  • I a bunch of Liquid Death cans from a friend -- it tastes great and would recommend everyone try it, but I wouldn't buy it myself. I love the story behind Liquid Death's marketing strategy and growth. Genius.

  • Refreshing water on a hot summer day in Vegas…thought it was an adult beverage but it was water…tried at the lovers and friends event.

  • Absolutely amazing, 10/10. I bought this for the first time at a random gas station curious as to how it tastes, and I was shocked at how refreshing it was. I think the fact that it's in an aluminum can protects it from the sun getting to it which locks in the taste much longer. Highly recommend. It's a bit overpriced, but considering how it's manufactured it's understandable.

  • It’s water in a can. It tastes fine. It’s water.

  • The water tastes good. I just hate the can. If it came in an eco friendly jug, I’d likely buy it regularly.

  • Love LD. Always have them at home. Great to take to kids sports events. Great brand and product!

  • I have a soft spot for good branding. I will try most anything if the brand can immediate evoke some sort of emotion or feeling, and that's how Liquid Death lured me in. I stayed because taste. The basic waters are fine, good, but I'm really loving the new flavors. Peach is my current go-to.

  • Love their seltzers!! They have just the right amount of fizz!

  • It's just water, but I think it gives the consumer this feeling that extends past the fact that they're just drinking flavored water. Really a prime showcase of how an incredibly strong brand identity really can allow for new brands in the marketplace to make a major foot hold. Every flavored one I've tried is delicious. I don't buy them often, but I know I'm not gonna be disappointed with the product.

  • I really liked the regular water. It was weird having it out of a can but I love that it’s better for the environment and it honestly was more refreshing!

  • Tried the mineral water at a trade show a few years back. It was great water but the marketing of this brand is really just beyond fun and awesome. The sparkling water is good, but I prefer the still.

    Received a free product from Liquid Death
  • Great product IF you can get it for a good price. I got it from grocery outlet for 25 cents and it was very tasty cold but not room temperature.

    Influencer for Liquid Death
  • Some of the best marketing I have ever seen. Pretty impressive considering it's just water.

  • Liquid death is not worth the hype in my opinion. The seltzer does not have enough carbonation and the regular water tastes weird. Did not enjoy the mango seltzer either.
