There are a few good posts on here about using corn. I'll be malting some of my own farm raised sweet corn in a couple of months.
Most don't seem to know how to use corn in a brew so they have to discount it due to their ignorance, you see that a lot. This is a great site to learn and glean new ideas.
I believe long time member and brewer Revvy has tried some pretty exotic corn brews, try a search for them. Also Yooper is far beyond just 'experienced' in brewing and has made excellent input on her results. Somewhere on here are a couple of guys that were malting popcorn too. Cool stuff.
