Well I don't know where in PA you live, but I do know that the Victory brewery is in Downingtown PA.
If you ever get the chance to take a trip there, it's awesome. (unless you've already been?)
Their Golden Monkey is one of my favorite beers.

I fucking hate PA. I'm hoping to move out permanently sometime soon... it's rural as shit, the economy is shit, the jobs pay shit, the houses are shit, and you know what else is shit? Everything. No beaches, just lots of fucking trees and I don't mean the good kind.

The scenery here isn't shit; it's beautiful. I grew up in PA, and I've traveled all over the country. I used to hate PA too, until I came back & looked at it from a different perspective. I love it here now. The liquor laws suck, but I don't drink, so that doesn't affect me. There are a bunch of laws that suck, but thats the US for ya. As far as jobs go, depends on what you do. Out of all the states I looked at, PA has the highest average salary for my field, with a reasonable cost of living. I'm in demand as well, so finding work isn't a problem. My family is here, my closest friends are here, there are forests, rivers, lakes, lots of good music within an hours radius, NYC is only a couple hours away. I'll continue to travel for recreation, but I'm putting my roots down here, and I'm looking forward to that.

I'm an hour and a half from Philly and NYC, I think that's cool.
In my wildest dreams PA is going to legalize weed before NY and NJ. It would be so smart.

A lot of PA bars sell 6-packs.
Also, Asians tend to specialize in 6-pack stores.

Liquor is sold by state run stores, so they are closed on Sundays and holidays.
You buy beer either at a distributor, or at a bar. Convenience/grocery stores used to not be able to sell booze. I believe they changed the law, but I haven't seen many stores make the switch. Like none at all.
Also it used to be that beer distributors couldn't be open on Sundays, but I think that changed too.
Oh yeah, and distributors can only sell cases, while bars can only sell 6 packs and single 40's.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I'll add that liquor stores are open until 9pm, unless they changed it.
Oh, and I don't like the Poconos because of Camelback, I was just sayin'

This was a late night rant about not being able to get more alcohol at the time, i don't actually hate PA, but yes I wish I could have ran to walmart for a 6er.
there are tons of state parks in every direction, so good for mushroom hunting. I live close-ish to lancaster, bout an hour from philly. fuck NYC, shit stinks.

Some Giant Eagles sell 12 packs and wine and one state store near me is now open on sunday but yea P.A sucks in general Almost all the jobs are either service industry or if they even have openings some tech companies still pay below Industry standard. They want like 42.00 for a fishing license Hunting licenses are outrageous as well and you need one to pick Ginseng and Goldenseal Oh and lets not forget how corrupt the judicial system is.
