Gas Hot Water Heater Relief Valve Problem

I have a 13 year old gas hot water heater that periodically (every couple of days) spits out a pint of water from the relief valve. I replaced the old valve with a new one of the same specs (150 psi, 210 deg F) but still see exactly the same behavior. Is this a sign the water heater is on its last legs? What is causing this?
