where can you buy beer and wine in pennsylvania

[VonEllie]

Navigating where to buy alcohol in Pennsylvania can feel a little unique compared to other states, but it's pretty straightforward once you know the system!

For wine, your primary destination will be the state-run stores, officially known as Fine Wine & Good Spirits. These stores are located all across the state and carry a wide selection of wines and spirits. In addition to the state stores, you can now find wine for sale in many grocery stores that have obtained the proper license, which is very convenient for grabbing a bottle with your groceries. You can also purchase wine directly from Pennsylvania wineries.

When it comes to beer, you have a few more options. If you're looking to buy in larger quantities like cases or kegs, you'll need to go to a beer distributor. For smaller amounts, such as six-packs, twelve-packs, or individual bottles, you can head to grocery stores, convenience stores, and dedicated bottle shops. Many bars and restaurants also offer six-packs to go.
