Sounds sweeet!
As far as I know, its only local distribution. Sorry mate. There is one beer i tasted recently that is a very good poor man's version of it.

8 Wired Hopwired IPA: http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/8-wired...ed-ipa/114480/

I can tell they are using a hop/malt profile that is pretty close to Hop Zombie. Not quite in the same league, but a very good beer nonetheless. If you want to see what NZ IPAs are all about, this is a good example.

Known distribution: http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/distribution/114480/

If Hop Zombie is beer of the highest order, 8 Wired Hopwired is beer of the next highest order.
