So I googled THIS and the origin story is literally exactly what you'd predict, just some guy thinking "What if we marketed sparkling water like an energy drink?" |

Honestly, I appreciate the chutzpah. I would buy it and drink it anyway, just because I enjoy sparkling water, subtly flavored or not. |

Wikipedia posted:Liquid Death also introduced three flavored carbonated beverages including Mango Chainsaw, Severed Lime, and Berry It Alive.[10] Unlike their unflavored seltzer these flavored carbonated beverages (“sparkling waters”) are actually akin to all-natural, low-calorie sodas as they not only contained added natural flavorings/extracts but also acidulants and some added sugar (from agave nectar) as well. In March 2023, the company announced sale of three tea flavors: Armless Palmer, Grim Leafer, and Rest in Peach, which contain agave nectar and 30 mgs of caffeine.[11]

Also it's positioning itself to be, and I'm not kidding about this, a lifestyle brand. Goop for metalheads.

This is really irritating me. Like they should at least put arsenic in it or something, not just slap a flaming skull on a La Croix can. |

cruft posted:This is really irritating me. I don't think the skull is flaming. But it is absolutely a product of pure marketing. Wikipedia posted:Delaware native Mike Cessario, a graphic designer[13] who previously worked as a Netflix creative director,[14] was inspired to create Liquid Death after watching a Vans Warped Tour in 2009, in which concert goers would drink water out of Monster Energy cans to stay hydrated. Cessario stated he wondered why no one had marketed water in a manner similar to Monster. For marketing, Cessario emphasized interestingness, which he believed would transition into organic shares on social media. Wikipedia again posted:The company originated with Cessario and three other partners, including a bartender and an artist. Wikipedia one last time posted:In 2019, Cessario stated the company's plan was to expand to bars, tattoo parlors, and certain barber shops in Los Angeles and Philadelphia as a "lifestyle play".[17] Cessario stated the brand was initially marketed towards straight edge adherents and fans of heavy metal music and punk rock.

Honestly it's pretty much the same price as Bubly but tastes a little better in account of the tiny bit of sugar (agave syrup, whatever, same thing) that they add. You don't usually see melon or mango Bubly at the gas station either. |
