Skeletal warriors work well. Unfortunately, beholders have no trouble whatsoever with killing/petrifying/disintegrating an entire party in one fell swoop. By the time your skeletons are done with the beholder, there's a fair chance you won't be alive to celebrate. A good way I've found is to use holy smite on the beholders from offscreen. It does a high amount of damage to them and they don't seem to notice and come looking for you, unlike when you shoot a fireball or cloudkill.
