Comments about Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem Drink Mix - 16 Serving:
I do a lot of century rides and this is my drink of choice for those and long training rides of about three hours. I used the orange vanilla flavor but had to add a sweetener. They now offer strawberry vanilla (new for 2011) and I've tried that without a sweetener and it's pretty good. Per the people at Hammer, 2 scoops per 24 oz is the ideal isotonic mix for quick absorption.

Comments about Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem Drink Mix - 16 Serving:
I love the even, steady energy I get when I use Hammer Perpetuem. I am training to walk a marathon, so my workouts are long... I have felt really balanced since I started using Perpetuem on my walks. I am not getting energy lows and spikes; don't ever feel hungry; no bloating or digestive rumblings. It has also lessened side effects like puffy fingers.
Personally, I really like the Cafe Latte flavor. I find it helpful to mix it up well in advance in a large pitcher. It needs a lot of stirring otherwise it will have chewy lumps! Once it is mixed it does not fall out of solution, but does not keep for more than a couple days.

Comments about Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem Drink Mix - 16 Serving:
I use Perpetuem during workouts and after.
I enjoy the mild taste of coffee. Flavor is unique but a bit difficult to get the right mix.
Although I like the taste, I have a difficult time getting the right mix, both taste and consistency. In order to help get the right consistency I started mixing it first with 100ml of hot water, then add another equal amount of room temperature.

Comments about Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem Drink Mix - 16 Serving:
This is the ultimate fuel for anything over 4 hours. It burns slow and clean with amazingly consistent energy output. I like to mix up a 4 - 8 hour bottle and supplement fluids from a hydration bladder or another bottle and lytes in capsule form. As long as I stay hydrated and avoid an overly concentrated mix, stomach issues have been nil. I have been using Perpetuem for about 7 years and love it!

Comments about Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem Drink Mix - 16 Serving:
Great portable nutrition for long rides/runs. Easier to get down than bars and includes protein as an energy source. Easy to customize the concentration to meet the specific needs of your workout/ride.
I've heard complaints about taste but I like the creamsicle flavor. It will start to sour if exposed to heat for a while and can become unpalatable, but that's expected from a substance with no preservatives.

Comments about Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem Drink Mix - 16 Serving:
I have used this product for long adventure races 18+ hours. It tastes ok at first (the first couple ounces, or about 5 mouthfuls). Then the fun really begins. It gets flat out hard to swallow hold your nose hard.
I had 2 big containers left and in the trash they went

Comments about Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem Drink Mix - 16 Serving:
I've been using Hammer products for about a year. Perpetuem has worked great for long rides. I generally use Heed for the first 2 hours for each hour after, one serving of Perpetuem and one gel. The combination has worked great. No bonk, not bloated, lots of slow stable energy.

Comments about Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem Drink Mix - 16 Serving:
Hammer has no Fructose, so far the best stuff I've found to drink on long rides. Doesn't feel heavy, in fact it's hard to conserve it, I just want to drink it all down!.
The Dreamsicle flavor is subtle and I like it. There's also an unflavored version.
