Founder & CEO Narayan Manepally was very keen (to put it mildly) on naming this beer James Blond, since it was a fun play on the name of a famous character from pop culture and the name also referenced the style. As cheesy as it sounded, the rest of the team only gave in after he promised to act as the character in a launch video for the beer and he kept his word.

"The James Blond at Geist Brewing Co. is my idea of a perfect refresher on a hot summer's day. It has everything I love in a beer. A gorgeous blond, with the exquisite mix of bitter and sweet, and of course an ABV of 7% for that beer buzz. If 007 could try it, he wouldn't bother with the martinis!"

"It's no secret that India loves strong beer as much as it loves a masala movie. In a way, they both cater to the lowest common denominator. But it took a few talented flmmakers to elevate the discourse around masala movies and serve something that caters to all takers. James Blond, in my mind, does this to strong beer. Thanks to the team at Geist for elevating the conversation about strong beers and delivering something that everyone can enjoy - craft beer snobs or otherwise 😄"
