no idea why as to one freezes, and the other don't.
But try prying open one of the bottles. Could be spectacular.
Have seen a few super cooled beers before, looks real nice.
When you pry off the top, the pressure drop can initiate a fast freeze.
10 seconds later, you can turn the bottle up side down, and it's frozen solid.

oh, and do it to a bud, not your good beer!

Just out of curiosity, where in CT are you? I grew up in RI

Any idea why the keg is freezing and not the bottles?

I find some parts of my fridge are colder than others, particularly when it is pretty full of kegs. My theory is that a keg or two are right next to the port that lets cold air in from the freezer, so they get colder and might freeze while items in other parts of the fridge stay just a scoonch warmer and thus don't freeze.

Makes balancing the kegs for pouring a trick, I tell ya.

I think you hit the answer here. Pressure difference between the bottled beer (higher presuure, less likely to freeze) and the keg (lower pressure, more likely to freeze). I don't know what pressure you're holding the keg at, but this seems plausible to me.
