If it is not tapped there are no special measures, just dont let it freeze. If it is tapped a;ready it will go flat unless you have a co2 tapper.

Beer freezes as 16 degree Fahrenheit... other than that you don't need to worry about anything.

Well you need to specify. Was it already cooled? Especially cold filtered.

1) if so, you need to keep it as close to that temp as possible. If you either cool it more are heat it up, it can go rank.

2) if not, Stick it in your room and put a plant on it. It's been stored at room temp for a long time.

While it won't freeze at 32 degrees, you really don't want to bring it down to that temp (outside) it will effect the taste.

Keep it refrigerated. Get a kegerator or keep it on ice. Keg beer is not pasteurized and can go bad.
