Did I kill the yeast? Ginger Beer

[Rob]

Hey, I made the fiery ginger beer about 5 days ago, I made a mistake and pitched the (wine) yeast too soon when the water was still hot, I thought I had ruined it but shortly after it was fizzing and bubbling and has been since.
Today I took the lemons and other bits floating on the top heard others said they take them out, anyway my Hydrometer reads 1.060 (I took no reading before I pitched the yeast, as never intended pitching it early), does this mean it's basically ruined? It actually tastes good but will it be non-alcoholic (does taste alcoholic though) and is it worth adding more yeast?
I am not usually as blasé but seeing as it's not real beer I was being a bit slack, it's all part of the learning curve I suppose.
Thanks.

Sorry, this might be in the wrong place, move if necessary.
Thanks

If as you say the "yeast is fizzing" then no you haven't killed it!
Best of luck with the GB.

I probably answered my own question, I was not sure as the fizzing seemed to stop after removing the lemon and ginger but I checked again and it's fizzing away.
Thanks

More sweet than dry at the moment, I will leave it for a bit longer and get back onto making ale then, but it tastes pretty good already.
Thanks.
