A very quick pint before the train back home. Remains a cheery micro and has nicely grown into its skin. Felt bigger than I recalled – maybe that’s down to me first visiting at the height of the COVID madness. Of amusement was the Wild West style wanted poster for the pub dog, which was committing its heinous hustling crimes as we stood at the bar. My pint of Stancill Nightshift was good (NBSS 3.5) and service with a smile alongside friendly locals. 8.5

Cheery little micro which looks like a pub – and that’s because it occupies part of a former public house. A traditional interior with some bits looking like they’ve come from an old church or chapel such as the bar front. I loved the map of Wales with the location of the breweries and suppliers marked up. No indoor seating when we arrived so we were directed to pavement chairs but when a table became free the genial landlord was on-the-ball enough to pop out and invite us back inside. Five (I think) ales on; 3x Grey Trees (sampled via thirds flight - Diggers Gold, Mosaic and Afghan – 2.5/2.5/3), Oakham Black Magic Porter (NBSS 3.5) Twti Lol Frwti Twt (NBSS 3). The downside was that the beer was served fairly warm in most cases, little-to-no cooling, which wasn’t great for the lighter ales. A nice place, but the beer really should be a bit cooler to make it top-notch. Rated 7.5

It's just been named as the Gwent CAMRA Pub of the Year. I can see why. My first time in here and I felt at home immediately, chatting easily with the landlord and some regulars. Great choice of cask beers. It's St David's Day and they're celebrating by giving anyone named Dave a free pint. Silly idea, but I can't see many chain pubs doing that. I don't come to Chepstow often, but I made a great choice by strolling in here.

described as a micro pub, but its more of a small traditional pub, unspoilt and very much a beer den. Small front bar leads to a similar back area. Filled with CAMRA types but the ale is great
