Default Guinness = Low Carb? NOT

I had read the same thing about Guinness and rejoiced, as I love Guinness. However my joy was short-lived. I can't speak for draft Guinness from a tap, but the can of Guinness Draught sitting beside me has the following nutritional info on the label:

Per 12 FL OZ: Average Analysis: Calories - 126; Carbohydrates - 9.9 grams; Protein -0.3 grams; Fat - 0.0 grams.

So my pint-sized can contains 13.2 grams of carbs. Sob.
