Default School me on Berlin (Germany that is)

I will be spending two days in Berlin with some friends. With all my travels, especially through Germany, I've never been to Berlin.

Who can share:
What to do/see? (Besides the wall and Brandenburg Gate)
Convenient/reasonably priced hotels
Good bier halls


Danke!

I never made it to Germany, but I did learn from MTV that riding the Metro is the best way to meet beautiful women:

Find a pastry shop and get something. The same for a Doner and a Schnitzel or three. There's also some that say German beer is good. Now that food and booze is covered, see some things. You'll be in Berlin, after all.

Went to Dusseldorf on business a few years ago. My hosts took me for lunch, where we each had an 8 oz beer to wash down our food. I'm not a fan of dark or warm beer.
