This is a step in the right direction but Distributors may still have a problem with keeping the doors open. According to Manta.com there are 9240 active listings for grocery and convenience stores in the commonwealth. Right now there are 1200 distributors and 618 state stores. Beer anyone?

Maybe the Foodery and Hawthorne could benefit from this, doing higher volume business on account of lower prices through this reform. I’ve walked out out of there with a six packs that could have got me a case of something good for $10 more.

I wonder the D’s in Phila and Alleghany Counties will have to tack on the 10% liquor by the drink tax that bars and delis in those counties have do for 6-pack sales.

While I love this, I also am very happy The Foodery exists and I worry that changing the law could drive the Foodery (and similar places) out of business. They should just go and legalize singles and let places like the Foodery sell their liquor licenses back to the state.
