Frozen Yeast

[HalfEvilBrewer]

I helped a friend brew his first batch of beer yesterday. It was an extract kit with a Whitelabs vial. When he received the kit, I told him to put the hops in the freezer and the yeast in the refrigerator. He did the opposite!! Is the yeast still going to be viable?

some of it will be....but it'll be in bad shape.
