DURHAM, N.C.Bull Durham Beer Co. is teaming up with local restaurant Heavenly Buffaloes for a new beer garden.
The Bullpen, which will be located in a 2,000-square-foot space on the ground floor of the American Tobacco Campus' Diamond View III building, will also feature live music with regular programming provided by the Music Maker Relief Foundation. $1 from every pint sold at The Bullpen will be donated to support the foundation's work.

"Real blues, real beer, real people: this will surely become one of the nation’s greatest blues clubs. Music Maker has spent over 20 years building relationships with America's deepest artists. We are thrilled to now have a "home stage" for these artists to perform," said Tim Duffy, co-founder, Music Maker Relief Foundation.
