        Comments about Hammer Gel - 26 Serving:

        Raspberry is a great flavor for those who like tart flavors. I'm the type who tries to stay away from sweeter flavors, those like chocolate, espresso, and vanilla.
        Compared to Gu (original), this stacks up pretty well. You don't get the almost instant jolt of energy without the caffeine, but when used properly, it will provide you with an even stream of energy.

        I do pick this option every time compared to Gu because Gu doesn't readily offer their product in bulk form. I really hate having to open those packs between my teeth while riding. Lastly, I carry a 10oz (5 serving) flask full of this stuff in my jersey pocket every time I ride. Best of all, I find it stores well, even if I don't use the whole flask.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          Comments about Hammer Gel - 26 Serving:

          REI needs to stock VANILLA flavor as well!! For Century rides you need a more neutral taste. using the 650ml gel in squeeze bottles elliminates the problem of what to do with empty gel packets?!?!?!

            I like that it doesn't contain artificial ingredients and it still taste better than any other gel I've tried. It taste more like raspberry preserves than typical energy gel. You can also feel it hit your system, which is impressive for something without any caffeine in it.

            Great Product, great price on sale - the espresso is good and the caffeine helps (this is my favorite)

            I have also tried the individual packets: the Vanilla is nasty - Green apple is good - Raspberry is good, it taste like like jelly...

            Service and delivery comments:

            Wish REI would ship free to residence... but the free ship to store is not bad...

              Comments about Hammer Gel - 26 Serving:

              While I'm extremely pleased with the individual packs, I recently was talked into buting the 26 serving/650 ml bottle. They say each serving is 2 tablespoons and claim there's 26 servings in this bottle. If you do a milliliter/tablespoon conversion you'll find that 650 ml only yields about 44 tablespoons or 22 servings. I've emailed Hammer Gel to complain. Don't like the misrepresentation from such a great product. Maybe they just can't do math?
