Need a Line Break Before Read More on Custom Excerpts

I have successfully followed your instructions on how to show the Read More button on my blog page when I am using Custom Excerpts, but the Read More text runs into the Excerpt now (http://npsnj.org/news). How can I add a line break to the snippet to put it on a separate line?
Hi Catbiscuits,
You can try altering your PHP into something like this:
add_filter( 'wp_trim_excerpt', 'tu_excerpt_metabox_more' );
function tu_excerpt_metabox_more( $excerpt ) {
$output = $excerpt;
if ( has_excerpt() ) {
$output = sprintf( '%1$s <br><a href="%2$s">%3$s</a>',
$excerpt,
get_permalink(),
__( 'Read more', 'generatepress' )
);
}
return $output;
}
I added a <br> within the code.
Hope this helps.
