Yes they do.
"If the patient is on beta-blockers, generally
epinephrine will not work in anaphylaxis. Glucagon can
be administered in its place, and 1 mm of glucagon can
be given subcutaneously irrespective of body size.
Nausea is the major side effect."

"Insect sting anaphylaxis and beta-adrenergic
blockade: a relative contraindication.
Awai LE, Mekori YA.
Severe anaphylaxis is reported in a bee
venom-sensitive 31-year-old male while receiving
propranolol. His anaphylactic reaction was mainly
respiratory and was refractory to emergency treatment.
We believe that his use of beta-blockers contributed
to the severity of his anaphylaxis and refractoriness
to treatment. We suggest that beta-blockers should be
contraindicated or alternate medications used in
hymenoptera allergic patients.

Don't think so. The epinefrin (mis-spelled probably) is way stronger than what beta blockers could affect.
