I assume room temp for beer/wine storage purposes is...55-60 fahrenheit or 12-14 celsius???

Perhaps not to surprising, but there is a lengthy article on this matter on BeerAdvocate.

Your strong beers (like barleywines, tripels, dark ales) will be their happiest at room temperature (55-60F), most of your standard ales (like bitters, IPAs, dobbelbocks, lambics, stouts, etc) will be at cellar temperature (50-55F) and your lighter beers (like lagers, pilsners, wheat beers, milds, etc) will be at a refrigerated temperature (45-50F). Usually the higher alcohol, the higher temperature and lower alcohol, the lower temperature ... you get the point.

And keep 'em in the dark!
