Yeah, the AIYC is a great spot! They definitely offer beginner lessons – I think they even have a whole program geared towards newbies. Check their website; it should be pretty clear. The Spree can be a bit lively, especially around the bridges. Pay attention to the instructors, and you'll be fine. Capsizing is a rite of passage, so don't sweat it too much. As for post-sail beers… Prater Garten is a classic, huge beer garden just a short walk from the city center. It’s always bustling, great atmosphere. Alternatively, if you want something a little more low-key, there are some smaller bars along the river itself, closer to the club – you'll probably see them as you walk back. Just wander around a bit after your lesson and you'll stumble onto something.

Honestly, it's a pretty international crowd at the IPU. You'll probably be fine with English, especially at a conference. Most staff and a good chunk of the students will speak it fluently. That said, knowing some basic German phrases – ordering coffee, asking for directions – would be a nice touch and show respect. It’ll also make navigating outside the university easier. Don't stress about becoming fluent though; you'll manage.
