It's all good
You've just got a case of the Beasters. I'm sure this will be said in ALL of the thousands of threads on the Beast... but here goes:
Yeah... it could be chemmy. Commercially grown and fed up close to harvest. Packaged sans proper dry and cure, so it could be damp and lack typical Cannabis odor. Supremely dense nugs and round shape due to kief processing... yes... they snake your trichs
Poorly manicured.... somewhat harsh.
Opinions go ALL across the board in where it comes from and whatever... but it's probably called Beaster because it comes from... yup... BC. Talk of asian gang distribution comes up... who knows
People say that you are wasting your money... I disagree. Although it doesn't taste or smell amazing, it will do the job. Usually (hopefully) pretty inexpensive. Some try to pass it off for 50's.... nahgannahappen.
As far as genetics... judging from past research and your pics, it is most likely M39 which I believe is mainly Indica, but was bred by Super Sativa Seed Club so there is some confusion on the boards as to that. Commonly sold now as Shiva Skunk which is NL #5(Basic #5) x Skunk #1 which is labeled as Indica dominant.
But yeah, pics look typical. Google it. If there was such a thing as a "controversial" strain... the Beast would be it
Edit: Just noticed you found it smooth through a bubbler... Good choice! I was going to recommend using a waterpipe due to it's tendency to torch and scorch... you're... ummm.... porch? Shit what rhymes with scorch that fits? Ahh... I got like 3 minutes to edit again. Wish me luck!
