Longtime country singer Garth Brooks is facing boycotts after saying his bar would serve all beers, including the much-maligned Bud Light, in the wake of the beer’s decision to produce a can with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney’s face on it.

“I want it to be a place you feel safe in, I want it to be a place where you feel like there are manners and people like one another,” Brooks told Billboard in a recent interview, responding to questions about whether his new Nashville bar will serve Bud Light. “And yes, we’re going to serve every brand of beer. We just are. It’s not our decision to make. Our thing is this: if you [are let] into this house, love one another. If you’re an [expletive], there are plenty of other places on lower Broadway.”
