Overview
Is the Hammer Gel single-serving pouch the right way to try it or fuel a specific ride?
The Hammer Gel Single Serving gives you one pouch of the same clean, complex carbohydrate fuel that endurance athletes have relied on since 1995: no added refined sugars, no artificial colors, no artificial flavors, no artificial sweeteners. Hammer Nutrition uses maltodextrin as the carbohydrate source, delivering fast-acting and sustained energy without the spike-and-crash pattern of simple sugar gels. Four amino acids (L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, L-Valine, and L-Alanine) are added to every flavor to help protect muscle tissue and reduce fatigue during prolonged effort. Real fruit and natural flavors complete the formula.
The single pouch is the right format for trying a new flavor before committing to a box, carrying exactly what you need for a specific shorter effort, or stocking up on individual flavors that you mix during longer rides. Use one serving 10 minutes before exercise and every 45 minutes during efforts up to three hours, alongside 16 to 26 oz of plain water per hour. Available in 10 flavors including Espresso (50mg caffeine) and Tropical (25mg caffeine). The nut flavors (Peanut Butter, Peanut Butter-Chocolate, and Nocciola) add 1g protein and 2.5 to 3.5g fat per serving, making them suitable as primary fuel for ultra-distance events. Note: Nocciola contains dairy and is not vegan. Kosher certified. Gluten-free. 5-year shelf life.

FAQ
Good questions
Get to know Hammer Nutrition
There's more to Hammer Nutrition than this one product. Our Hammer Nutrition page has the full Hammer Nutrition lineup we carry and more about the brand.
Visit the Hammer Nutrition page →Do I need to take Hammer Gel with water?
Hammer Gel is designed to be consumed with plain water. Drink 16 to 26 oz of water per hour alongside gel use, adjusting for heat and effort level. This is what makes Hammer Gel particularly well-suited to cyclists who prefer plain water in their bottles rather than a mixed drink.
Which single-serving flavors contain caffeine?
Espresso contains 50mg of caffeine per serving. Tropical contains 25mg per serving. All other flavors are caffeine-free.
Is it cheaper to buy a box instead of singles?
Yes. Buying a box of 24 brings the cost per gel down by 10% compared to single-serving pouches. Once you have identified your preferred flavors, the box is the economical choice.
Are all flavors vegan?
All flavors except Nocciola are vegan-friendly. Nocciola contains non-fat dry milk as part of the hazelnut paste and is not vegan.
What is different about the nut-based flavors?
The Peanut Butter, Peanut Butter-Chocolate, and Nocciola flavors contain 1g of protein and 2.5 to 3.5g of fat per serving from their nut ingredients. This makes them more calorie-dense and suitable as primary fuel for ultra-distance events. Standard flavors contain 0g fat and 0g protein.
