Two figures in Scottish tartan kilts, shown from waist down with bare legs and black shoes, stand side by side on a bright red field flanking a gold star-burst medallion. A soccer ball rests at their feet. The composition is rendered in a retro illustration style with bold outlines and flat colour, evoking mid-20th-century graphic design. The beer name appears in lowercase sans serif above the emblem, with 'army ale' and alcohol content below.
From the label“Label reads 'army ale' with Scottish tartan/kilt imagery and a lion rampant (Scottish heraldry). TTB class 902 ALE. 'Army Ale' with Scottish theme suggests amber/red ale style common to Scottish-themed beers, but no explicit style statement is printed. Name inference only — 'Tartan Army Ale' evokes Scottish ale tradition.”
