Last I heard in Pennsylvania you can’t buy beer or wine at the supermarket if you want a six-pack of beer you need to go to the tavern. If you want a case of beer you go to the “distributor”. Legalize pot in Pa? I don’t think that will happen soon, nor should it.

Absolutely correct. Liquor sales, both wholesale and retail, are a state monopoly run by the PA Liquor Control Board and it’s public sector union employees (Holy Ceaucescu, Batman!) Beer is only available at taverns in six packs or by the case at distributors, who are a well-organized lobby and fight to protect their turf every time the subject of beer in grocery stores comes up.
That being said, if they do legalize pot here I’d expect it to be sold exclusively in State Stores by Unionized state employees.
