Clearfix and responsive navbar issues with Bootstrap

I'm trying to make a responsive navbar. I want the navbar-brand on left and toggle-button on right in mobile screens and navbar on left and menu on right on desktop. Problem is, when I float toggle-button right it looks like there's a clearing issue that clearfix doesn't fix. Instead the first item of the menu will nestle up next to the navbar-brand element.

Any idea how to fix this?

<nav class="navbar navbar-dark clearfix" style="background-color:#44c764">
      <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">HackShack</a>
      <button class="navbar-toggler hidden-sm-up pull-xs-right" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#responsiveCollapse">
        ☰
      </button>

      <div class="nav-block collapse navbar-toggleable-xs" id="responsiveCollapse"> <!-- class .navbar-toggleable-* -->

        <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
          <li class="nav-item active">
            <a class="nav-link" href="#">Stuff<span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
          </li>
          <li class="nav-item">
            <a class="nav-link" href="#">Cards</a>
          </li>
          <li class="nav-item">
            <a class="nav-link" href="#">Buttons</a>
          </li>
          <li class="nav-item">
            <a class="nav-link" href="#">Badges</a>
          </li>
        </ul>
      </div>
    </nav>
