AFAIK Homebrew doesn't provide a newer (or better: any) host executable.
So either use dig: dig <host> type257
or install go and dnscaa - CAA DNS Library for Go.
dig also doesn’t support CAA inheritance, and the output of the query is the binary-encoded record (although in newer versions of dig, support for parsing the record data is present)
