I would try to raise that peak to a minimum 3/12 and better yet 4/12. The greater the slope, the less issues you will have with your roof and you’ll be able to use whatever roofing material you want.

If the beam is rated for the span and load, you can build post on each end to raise that beam as high as you want.
