The brake fluid in my 996 was amber in the reservoir and super blue in the calipers. It had been at least two years since it had a brake service, (not under my care.)
I think the fluid is pretty stagnant.

While it might not "circulate" like coolant, wouldn't the fluid be heated down at the wheels during braking, causing it to expand and become less dense, then rise in the brake line?
In reply to GameboyRMH :
Tried this kit once never got use to the feeling of the pedal with it installed it did help my boil over problems but I tossed it and got better pads.

Interesting , any idea if the Amber fluid and the Super Blue were both the same "Dot" 3 or 4

No clue. Replaced with ATE type 200. Also, modernish cars with ABS may pose barriers to how far north brake fluid can migrate from the calipers.
