I am planning on doing a barley wine with 10% of the malt bill being maple syrup. I want to go with either grade A light or medium, and all I have found in local stores so far is medium. Has the contribution to the overall beer color from maple syrup been quantified? If you have brewed with maple syrup, what has been your experience with regard to the color of your finished beer? Will medium be too dark?
 
The color contribution will be minor. [\Be aware that maple flavor, without any sugar behind it, isn't very good.
