In fact, just loading ox-beamer.el produces the same error.

It's a bug in org-beamer.el.  It defines that face incorrectly:

  (defface org-beamer-tag '((t (:box (:line-width 1 :color grey40))))
                                                           ^^^^^^
"grey40" should be a string, not a symbol.

This bug is already fixed in Org on the emacs-29 release branch, so it
will be fixed soon on master as well, when we next merge emacs-29 onto
master.

I'm therefore closing this bug.

P.S. In general, whenever any errors pop up due to the above commit,
it is almost certainly a bug in the face definition (which previously
went unnoticed), so people should first and foremost look at the face
definition, because more often than not, there's a real bug there.
