James Bond bows to beer

Los Angeles - Forget the martini - give Bond a beer.

That could be the rallying cry in the upcoming 007 movie, Casino Royale, in which the suave British super-spy is set to drop his exclusive taste for martinis and instead take up some plebeian beer-swilling, according to the Hollywood Reporter Friday.

Producers of the movie have even signed a six-figure deal with beer giant, Heineken, for a promotional partnership that will include a television commercial shot on the Bond set featuring Bond girl Eva Green and directed by Oscar-winner Stephen Gaghan.

James Bond purists will be grateful to know that the beer plot is not just a money grab by the movie's makers.

Casino Royale was the first Bond book written by Ian Fleming and the only one in which Bond drinks beer. - Sapa-dpa
