Today I was planning on brewing a saison but my Wyeast 3711 FR Saison froze in the refrigerator! I smacked the activator just to check and see if it was still good last night and absolutely nothing has happened so I'm pretty sure the freezing killed it. I went to the LHBS today to buy a new pack and they were out, in fact all they had was some Wyeast 2565 Kolsch for free because it is older than six months... I grabbed it anyways as I have my heart set on brewing today! My questions are:
1. Should I pitch the Kolsch yeast and assume it's probably still good even though it's old.
2. Should I pitch the Saison yeast and hope there are still some good cells left in there?
3. Should I pitch both the Kolsch and Saison yeasts and see what happens??
