One of the golden rules of food and wine pairing says **"what grows together goes together"**. As experienced wine connoisseurs, we will challenge conventional wisdom and put this rule on its head by pairing - non Italian wines with the following classic Italian dishes: * *Caprese* * *Panzenella (sicilian bread salad)* * *Caponata* * *Prosciutto e Melone* * *Frittata di zucchini* * *Calamari alla griglia* * *Tiramisu* From Stellenbosch to Wellington and all the way to the Mosel or the Danube, the world is your oyster. Select and bring a bottle (still or sparkling, white, rosé or red) that is unconventional, unexpected, exciting or simply daring that will astound and inspire even the most traditional Italian sommelier. The requirements for the wine are simple, \- price range of 15€ plus\)\, \- if white\, rose\, sparkling please bring already chilled\, and **IMPORTANTLY,** keep the wine covered so no-one can see it. At our blind wine tasting events - we share, we taste, we analyse, we discuss, we enjoy and we attempt to identify what’s in the glass. No expertise is required - Curiosity is enough. **💶 Contribution** **€25 donation per person (plus your bottle of wine)** **A 72-hour cancellation policy applies.** **Who Should Join?** This evening is open to everyone — from curious enthusiasts to experienced wine lovers.

**Open writing circle** For **LGBTQIA+** **Gast in diesem Monat: Alejandro Múnera** **[Free with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/writing-circle/w26-2026/)** This workshop invites LGBTQI+ participants to approach writing as a practice of listening. Together, we will explore what it means to listen carefully to ourselves, to one another, and to the multiplicity of worlds we inhabit. It’ll also be an opportunity to consider how writing emerges from encounters, conversations, memories, silences, and different forms of attention. No previous writing experience is required; conducted in English, but open to all languages. The workshop invites participants interested in poetry, storytelling, reflection, and all forms of creative experimentation. **Words and stories reside within all of us, waiting to be discovered.** Our monthly Open Writing Circle invites people with all levels of writing experience to explore their creativity and imagination. In each session, one of Berlin’s many exceptional writers, poets, artists, or curators will create a vibrant and collective learning experience. Whether you’re interested in fiction, memoir, non-fiction, or poetry, this supportive space encourages you to uncover the words within you. We’ll draw upon techniques used in writing workshops to unleash your innate talent in a collaborative environment that will allow for a dynamic exchange of ideas and insights. This workshop aims to create an affirming, playful and empowering space for queer people to explore, express and celebrate their identities as well as to provide a platform for the stories of the LGBTQIA+ community to be shared, heard and valued. *\*\* This event is part of the we are village program ‘****[Belonging versus Lonelliness](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness)****‘, with the support of the* ***[LADS](https://www.berlin.de/sen/lads/en/)****.* *Learn more about the program [here](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness).* 🔵 **Open writing circle** Fur **LGTBQIA+** **Gast in diesem Monat: Alejandro Múnera** **[Kostenlos mit Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/writing-circle/w26-2026/)** Dieser Workshop lädt LGBTQI+-Teilnehmende dazu ein, Schreiben als eine Praxis des Zuhörens zu verstehen.

Zu Beginn der Veranstaltung gibt es einen kurzen Impulsvortrag; Thema diesmal: Wie du als Unternehmer in die Sichtbarkeit mit Reels kommst. In einem kurzen Impuls gibt Moderator Oliver Gehrmann ein paar Einblicke in die Möglichkeiten, dem eigenen Business mit Hilfe von Kurzvideos ("Reels") auf Plattformen, wie YouTube, Instagram und TikTok zu mehr Sichtbarkeit zu verhelfen. Wir gehen auf Fragen ein, welches Equipment benötigt wird, worüber man als Unternehmer am besten spricht und welchen Effekt man sich letzten Endes wirklich davon erhoffen kann. \-\-\- Solltest du ebenfalls Interesse haben, einen Impulsvortrag zu halten, so schreib uns sehr gerne. Weitere Informationen gibt es auch hier: [Impulsvorträge bei BNB](https://netzwerken.berlin/impulsvortraege/) \-\-\- Alle Gründer/StartUps, Freiberufler und Unternehmer/Unternehmensvertreter sind willkommen beim Business MeetUp im Café Amelie im Prenzlauer Berg.

Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows: * You should not care how many people are joining this meetup. You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend. * You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining. You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones. * You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time! Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-) * You are ready to use your phone as a real phone! You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone! * You are going to meet some people twice! That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once. If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way. P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).

This is "***New Members Night***." If you are one of the many folks on the fence about coming to your first wine tasting with the *Hilliard Wine Club*, this is the night to come. There will be many other new people, so you won't be alone. And the regulars will be there to help make you feel welcome. We're a relaxed and warm group. We hope to see you. **SIDE NOTE:** New members are welcome to ALL our Friday night wine tastings, but this night is a special overture to those who don't want to feel that they are the only new person in the room. Don't worry. You won't be. And don't hesitate to RSVP to other events. **OLD MEMBERS NOTE**: Hey Old Members! You're not excluded from this event. We expect to see you there to help make the new members feel welcome. **Sample 4 different wines** this Friday for $15 (*Cash or Venmo only please*). Glasses are provided. Bring a snack to share. Bring a bottle to share if you care to. See all the details below for the Hilliard Wine Club Wine Tasting. In Person. In Real Life. Actual Wine from glass bottles with corks and everything. **Wine**: Tastings will be $15 for four samples as always. And you are welcome to bring a bottle of your favorite wine to share with others. Participation in the wine tastings is optional. But since you’re going, I will buy enough wine to cover you. If you bring your own wine and do not participate in the tasting you will only pay $10 to cover the door charge. **Parking**: There are several public parking lots near the Alive614 hall. Please be careful to NOT park in private parking lots. They do tow. Check Google maps to scope out your space. Anyone who is early could easily find a parking space on the street nearby. **Glasses**: …will be provided. Please note that after the wine tasting, the glasses need to be returned to the boxes at the service table. Please be gentle, our glasses are fragile. Uh, they are made of glass! **Food**: You are welcome to bring a snack to share. It is not required. Most people do though. If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions. **Extra Wine**: After everyone has had their samples, we remove the pouring spouts and any remaining wine is poured freely to whomever wants it. I hate having leftover wine. **Queen of Hearts**: The Queen of Hearts raffle is a fundraiser for the club and a Barnum and Bailey type extravaganza - minus the dancing ponies, clowns, and actual circus. Bring your ***cash*** as the Queen does not accept American Express or other plastic. **After the lights go out**: After the last sip of wine, when we clean up and turn the lights out, if you still haven’t had enough of us, it is typical for a group to get together and go to a local eatery for food and/or drinks or coffee. Again, We look forward to meeting new members and reuniting with old friends. Sincerely, ***Paul Uttermohlen***, **Red 1 Realty** *Your Hilliard Wine Club Host*
