A heraldic composition centred on a crowned shield bearing the letters ESB in blue and gold, flanked by two red rampant lions and a penguin in formal dress below. The cream-coloured central panel is framed by a deep teal field that extends to the edges, with the beer name "Bitter Bird" and style "Extra Special Bitter" set in sans-serif capitals beneath the emblem. Brewing details and regulatory information occupy the teal margins on left and right.
From the label“Label explicitly states 'EXTRA SPECIAL BITTER' beneath the beer name 'BITTER BIRD' and the large 'ESB' monogram; ESB (Extra Special Bitter) maps directly to english_pale_ale in the taxonomy.”
