I found this thread on Rennlist. It appears to be more pertinent to my issue. I checked the wiring in the trunk and couldn't find any obvious issues.

The only visible issue I found was one of the brake light bulbs is discolored. The filament is intact, but the bulb is darkened which suggest that it may be getting hot.

I replaced the bulb and fuse B7 (again.) The light is working okay in the garage, but I need to complete a road test to see whether this resolved the issue. I need to choose a place and time with light traffic to avoid creating a hazard for myself and others.
