You'd have to write
note = a8
to even have a chance: sequential music enclosed in { } cannot get a
beam: which expression should even get it?
However, LilyPond does not permit adding "post events" after the fact
(never mind their name). You can use
{
<>[ \note b b b]
}
to have the beam start event on an empty chord with duration 0. This
will work reasonably well for beaming but not for post events (like
string numbers) that need to be attached to single notes rather than
moments of time.
