Perhaps the store was out of 12-packs.

Also at that time, in like early 90's (in the tv show), I don't think 12-pack was that common

No. We've had 6 packs, 12 packs, and cases since at least the 70s.

Source: I bought pretty much every packaging that Old Style was sold in during late 70s and early 80s.

12 packs were pretty much the default packaging.
