    Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board Closes Fine Wine & Good Spirits in Johnstown, Cambria County

    January 02, 2026

    Johnstown – The Fine Wine & Good Spirits (FW&GS) at Geistown Shopping Center, 2230 Ruth Way, Johnstown, Cambria County, will close permanently at 6:00 PM Sunday, Jan. 4.

    The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB) anticipates opening a new FW&GS in Johnstown later this month.

    Until then, customers are encouraged to shop for wines, spirits, and accessories at these nearby FW&GS locations:

    • 1513 Scalp Ave., Johnstown
    • 420 Main St., Johnstown
    • Westwood Plaza, 1910 Minno Dr., Johnstown

    The PLCB regulates the distribution of beverage alcohol in Pennsylvania, operates Fine Wine & Good Spirits stores statewide, and licenses more than 20,000 alcohol producers, retailers, and handlers. The PLCB also works to reduce and prevent dangerous and underage drinking through partnerships with schools, community groups, and licensees. For more information about the PLCB, visit pa.gov/lcb.

    Fine Wine & Good Spirits is Pennsylvania’s go-to destination for wine, spirits, and ready-to-drink cocktails, as well as in-store tastings and events. With more than 560 stores, 13 licensee service centers and a robust online shopping experience at FWGS.com, Fine Wine & Good Spirits offers a wide selection of products for customers to discover new favorites, find trusted classics, and explore exclusive, limited-release selections. Fine Wine & Good Spirits and the PLCB contribute to the state’s economy by returning taxes and profits – nearly $23.5 billion since the agency’s inception – to Pennsylvania’s General Fund, financing Pennsylvania’s schools, health and human services programs, law enforcement, and public safety and community initiatives. The PLCB also provides financial support for the Pennsylvania State Police Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement, the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs, other state agencies, and local municipalities across the state.

    Every purchase made at a Fine Wine & Good Spirits store or at FWGS.com helps strengthen Pennsylvania, supporting nearly 6,000 employees and more than 2,500 communities across the commonwealth.
