I made an almost forgotten English ale today - an AK. Nobody seems to even know what AK stands for. The style varies wildly by which timeframe you look at. Anyway, A predominant style seems to be 80% pale malt (I used MO), 10% flaked maize, and 10% inverted sugar. I made the syrup but I burned my first attempt. 2nd time was perfect. Came out exactly like Lyle's Golden Syrup. Probably a bit high on my OG at 1.064 but still much lower than my typical fare. I could use a "light" beer to offset my usual high gravity stuff from time to time.
