So i've had the beta installed for about 24 hours, and I noticed that I have the location services icon showing up always.

It goes away if I completely turn off Location Services, but when I manually select "Never" or toggle off all of the apps and services requesting location, the icon remains. This is causing the phone battery to decrease rapidly.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

It's a known bug in beta 1. You either have to disable location services entirely, or wait for beta 2 to hopefully fix the bug.

It's already a known bug, it's the App Store causing it, I fixed it by disabling location services and only enabling them when needed
 
Stated in the release notes...

Location Services
Known Issues

When Location Services is turned on, the device’s current location is used to recommend relevant apps on the lock screen. In this beta, this happens whether or not the App Store is enabled for Location Services.

Workaround: To disable app recommendation on the lock screen, turn off Location Services.
