Question About Brake Fluid Condition

Hey, question about brake fluid condition. I'm familiar w/brake fluid getting dark, even black, if it gets old. The fluid in this car is clear though. Did Toyota use some special brake fluid that stays clear even when old, or is the fact that this is clear mean it must have been flushed/replaced in recent history? The car was bought new in April '06 (it is an early '07), so it's over 11 1/2 years old, and I don't see how this fluid can be that old.... or is that possible? Car has 76k mi. See pix. The fluid actually looks more clear than the way the pix came out. Thx! Dave-
