I’m an outsider, moving to PA next week, and I don’t understand this at all. Are these state-owned bottles of alcohol or have they been confiscated?

States owned.

PA is a state store only state for booze

Yea it’s too common anymore (Alabama, Idaho, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Utah and Virginia are state store states)

Liquor licenses can be a bitch too, so you’ll see places that are either beer only (beer isn’t state owned) or if they serve liquor then they have a FULL bar (lol) there’s no in between

Also liquor stores tend to have weird hours for that reason, so never assume they are open
