Replacing water with maple sap in boil

Split batch at day 12. Dry hop both batches and added maple syrup to one batch.
 
Notes

Propane heat source.

3 gallon boil of local maple sap/ filtered.

Boiled down to 1.5 gallons at end of boil.

Topped with 2.0 gallons of sap for total of 3.5 gallons before pitch.

Split and dry hopped at 7-10 days, 1.75 gallons with added maple syrup (insert amount)

OG 1.088 (with sap vs water)
FG 1.025 (at day 7) = 70% attenuation
