Garth Brooks' Beer Controversy: John Rich and Fans React.

Country music star John Rich has spoken out on Garth Brooks' decision not to ban Bud Light from his soon-to-open bar in Nashville, despite the beer brand facing boycotts over a partnership with a transgender influencer. Rich, who has stated that he won't be stocking the beer at his own bar in the city, offered a measured response, saying that Brooks has always been the guy that said, "everybody come to my show." Brooks has said that he wants his bar to be a place where people feel safe and like one another, and that he will serve every brand of beer.
