Color of some maple syrup (5)

I believe the answer is:

amber

(Other definitions for amber that I've seen before include "Young bird of prey" , "Medium to dark brownish-yellow colour" , ""Stop" traffic light" , "Fossil resin - warning light" , "Yellow fossil-resin" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
