I did something stoooooopid. It takes a bit of jockeying to get four kegs in my 5.0 cf keezer. I just kegged two batches and when I was moving things around to fit the kegs, I pulled the 1/2 growler of water that the temp sensor is attached to out of the bottom of the keezer and laid it on top of the kegs.

The next day I went to pull a pint and nothing came out of any of the three taps. Apparently in trying to get the water at the top of the keezer to 34 deg, (I have an 11" collar on the keezer) I froze the beer in the bottom of the keezer.

Everything is thawing right now. So what impact will that have on my beer?
 
As far as I'm aware, none. I did the same over the weekend, but didn't completely freeze the kegs. I had a ring around the bottom of the keezer that was about 3x4"
