Maven shows no colors in macOS terminal

I installed Maven (the latest version, 3.8.3) via Homebrew (brew install maven) on a Mac running the latest macOS Monterey (12.0.1, Apple Silicon).

When I run any mvn command in the terminal, the output is plain white with no colors and no bold text. I tried the same command (also version 3.8.3) on my older MacBook (Monterey 12.0.1 as well), with the exact same Terminal settings and here, the colors are there just as expected.

When explicitly setting -Dstyle.color=always after mvn, the colors also work as expected, but I don't want to set this all the time.

Other things I've tried:

Are there any settings that I might have missed? Or is there another way to explicitly tell Maven to always set style.color=always?

The reason is simple: this is only included in Jansi 2.4.0 which is not in a Maven release yet. If you ask politely, I can include this in Maven 3.8.4.

I have addressed this here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7331
