Bidding Info

2009 EXTREME DARK HERDSIRE OF THE YEAR! If you like Dark Shaddow then your going to love Amstel. He looks just like his Sire and is also a non-fading jet true black. Amstel is quickly developing a reputation of producing outstanding offspring just like his well known sire. Amstel's offspring have won several blue ribbons as well as championship. So far Amstel has produced 100% true black out of true black dams, true black and bay black out white dams and silver gray out of a gray dam! He has also been bred to two multis and produced solid colored crias. Amstel is the first offspring born out of our multiple true black champion, Dark Shaddow and he is just as spectacular. Amstel has extremely dense fleece with a very fine handle and tight crimp exhibiting multiple crimps per inch. He has extensive coverage from head to toes, large bones and a full topknot. An added bonus is the wonderful temperment he has. Amstel has been shown in several shows and has placed in the top of his class in all of them including winning three championships. At the 2005 AAA Futurity Amstel beat the previous years Futurity Champion including 3 of Snowmass Alpacas Nova's sons including Private Reserve who sold at Snowmass 2008 auction. Amstel is by far one of the best true black males in the USA and is quickly building a name for himself. To find a true black male of this caliber is extremely difficult and we are blessed to have both Amstel as well as his Sire, Dark Shaddow. If you want the winning edge with Dark Shaddow genetics, then Grand River Amstel is the next generation true black male that will help you to achieve that goal!Grand River Amstel is proudly co-owned with Grand River Alpacas. Call or email West Penn Alpacas or Grand River Alpaca Farm to reserve your breeding to Amstel.
