Looks like manufacture defect.

What brand?

Presumably the process of welding the valve part to the rest of the tube failed for some reason and wasn't spotted by whatever quality checks they do.

Schwalbe! That's why I'm surprised, I've never had issues with them.

That is surprising, Schwalbe stuff is usually pretty solid.

Switched to their tyres on one of my previous bikes a couple years ago, and was pretty impressed with the smooth quiet rolling, and puncture resistance. Currently running road cruiser greens with their inner tubes
