Not a variety no, but the Commercial normally has a guest ale and it is usually pretty good.
I'm not sure about the nearest other than that but I should think Brynmawr. Don't know if it still does, but Y Gwesty used to stock nice beers, including Felinfoel. _________________ The compliments pass when the quality meet.
btw The Mersh provides free football, rugby, horse racing - and this weekend cricket, followed by a rock-oriented jukebox, unless the bar staff get their hands on it first.
However, the front and back lounges are civilised. _________________ Rocke

Thanks Rocke for that info.. I have tried the Wye Valley Butty Bach in a pub at Symond's Yat East and Usk.. Not bad...
By the way the Castle Inn has now reopened in Twyn Square, Usk. _________________ 'Ain't No Dark 'Till Something Shines, I'm Bound to Leave This Dark Behind..

Do they have real ales on cask? I know they've got a good selection of bottles. It's a really nice walk over too. _________________ The compliments pass when the quality meet.
Not sure if cask is an option but as you say they had more variety in bottles than i can drink in a night (bit of a lightweight).
It's a nice pub in a nice setting and a worthy stopping point on any walk.
I was in awe of there variety of whiskey/whisky _________________ I'd Like to think all is good but.............. I've miss-placed my rose tinted glasses

We were over one evening a while back and there were a group of men from the Railway society having a drink. They had their train parked outside. Brilliant! _________________ The compliments pass when the quality meet.
I don't know if things have changed but quite a few years ago we decided to walk over to the Whistle.It was a lovely sunny day with beautiful views all around and the promise of a nice cold drink at the other end.We got to the point where you can actually see the pub and very nearly broke into a run.It was going on for 1 o clock ,we walked across the car park tried the door and it was locked ,imagine the sinking feeling,we knocked on the door and eventually someone appeared at a window and told us they only opened in the day on a Sunday.We couldn't even get a glass of water,let alone a nice pint.
Anyway we walked on to the Racehorse and managed to get a drink there and a bag of crisps,even though it was supposed to be shut I think.
From there we walked down into Brynmawr and phoned my son to come and pick us up at my brothers house.
You live and learn ,we never tried it again,the walk or the pub.
