I was an exchange student there in High School. Germans as a whole are very friendly. BUT, they are not so to strangers. In fact you address a german differently depending on the amount of familiarity you have with the individuals...literally, the pronouns and titles are different. But, once a German comes to know you as a rule, you have a loyal friend for life.
The food is sort of heavy stuff, we eat lighter meals here in the states. The Beer is absolutely, the best in the world. On this I don't care what anyone says. Some tips would be to learn how to address Germans both formally and informally. Try using their language to them. Even if you butcher the hell out of it, you will show them your effort and it will go a ways towards gaining their respect. They are proud people. Honor to them is important so don't pick a battle you are not sure you will win. They are impressed by honest effort and courtesy. They make the first move to friendship and will wait for your response. Be polite, hang back and go with the flow. You will see they are a wonderful and surprisingly warm people.
