How to buy wine, beer and liquor in Pittsburgh?

Can I buy wine and beer at the grocery store like in NC but liquor in a gov't store? We are moving in 2 days and at some point it will be important to know.

1. State Liquor laws require you to go to a "state store". Its a giant liquor store, but owned and operated by the state. You can go to bars or some establishments and get 6 packs of beer
2. Pennsylvania doesn't sell beer and wine in grocery stores. But on the good side, they have plenty of "beer, wine and liquor" outlets dedicated to it.
3. It depends where you are moving in Pittsburgh... I live in the South Hills and we have a Shop N Save that sells some alcohol and I believe there are a few more stores around the Pittsburgh area... But for the most part we buy our beer at the beer distributor and liquor at the State Store. Beer distributors and state stores are everywhere... Welcome to Pittsburgh! You'll love it!
