Can a UK passport valid for two months travel to Germany post-brexit?
If I had a UK passport which was due to expire on February 1st, 2020 - less than 6 months from now, would I be allowed to make a weekend visit to Germany?

This is a badly formed question because your passport expiry is the same as the Brexit crash-out date! So you are only asking about 2 use cases: a) Britain still in EU, or b) passport is expired. Black-boxing Traveler's link: After a crash-out Brexit, you cannot travel on an expired passport end of inquiry.
Anti-DV Disclaimer: I'm referring to a UK citizen traveling to Germany, since that is OP. I answer questions in context.
FYI, after a crash-out Brexit, your passport becomes useless for German travel 9.5 years after its issuance, or within 6 (not 3) months of its expiry, whichever happens sooner.
If you're asking "well, what happens on a yes-deal Brexit?", ask on politics.se because that depends on the deal. Nobody knows. The link assumes the only thing we do know, which is crash-out.
