IPFS, like your filesystem, doesn’t store this information at the moment. It knows whether a something is a directory, regular file, or a symlink but we don’t record the MIME type (we have space, we just don’t currently record it).

So, to find the mime type, you’ll have to fetch the file and then use whatever you usually use on your operating system (on Linux, users usually use the file command).
